Abstract
In a method for visualizing geographic data using at least two-dimensional objects, at least one surface of the objects is covered with at least one texture, which texture is dynamically assigned to the at least one surface of the objects as a function of at least one input factor.
Claims17
A method for visualizing geographic data, comprising:
- displaying a plurality of objects that each has at least two dimensions;
- and
- for each of at least one of the plurality of objects, covering at least one surface of the respective object with at least one texture, wherein the at least one texture is dynamically assigned to the at least one surface as a function of at least one input factor, the at least one texture being independent of textures of others of the plurality of objects.
A navigation device, comprising:
- a display device configured to display a plurality of objects that each has at least two dimensions;
- and
- a control device configured to, for each of at least one of the plurality of objects, cover at least one surface of the respective object with at least one texture, wherein the at least one texture is dynamically assigned to the at least one surface as a function of at least one input factor, the at least one texture being independent of texture of others of the plurality of objects.
