* Interaction speed is not dependent on framerate * Split up interaction code in files and perform smooth interpolation when changing focus * Abstract interaction code in to functions. * Interpolation time is dependent on angle to focus node. * Use correct delta time when interpolating * Fix bug regarding decomposition of camera rotation. * Make orbital interaction mode behave as globe browsing and no longer use interactiondepth below ellipsoid. * Do not always rotate with object. Depending on distance * Remove interaction depth below ellipsoid. Now able to interact without renderable * Remove specification of interactionDepthBelowEllipsoid and cameraMinHeight * Remove GlobeBrowsingInteractionMode * Rename OrbitalInteractionMode to OrbitalNavigator and no longer extend interactionmode. * Move properties from interaction handler to orbital navigator * Use smooth step for follow rotation interpolator * Rename KeyframeInteractionMode to KeyframeNavigator * Rename files * Clean up. * Separate mousestate from orbitalnavigator * Clean up * Split keybindingmanager from interactionhandler interactionhandler * Rename interactionhandler to navigationhandler * Rename files * Clean up * Take back usage of gotochunk and gotogeo * Rename lua library navigation * Move functionality from navigationhandler to keyframenavigator * Update scripts for navigation * Comment code * Clean up * Solve but that caused NaN values for camera position when being in center of globe and setting focus to the globe. * Update jenkins file to remove build folder before building. * Fix error in jenkins script * Update jenkins file * Update jenkins file * Revert jenkins file * I hope this makes Jenkins happy. * Line endings God damnit * Line endings * Clean up * Fix compilation issue * Take back default scene. * Fix indentation * Move functions goToGeo and goToChunk to GlobeBrowsingModule. * Include algorithm for std::find * Remove auto and other clean up
OpenSpace is an open source, non-commercial, and freely available interactive data visualization software designed to visualize the entire known universe and portray our ongoing efforts to investigate the cosmos. Bringing the latest techniques from data visualization research to the general public, OpenSpace supports interactive presentation of dynamic data from observations, simulations, and space mission planning and operations. The software works on multiple operating systems (Windows, Linux, MacOS) with an extensible architecture powering high resolution tiled displays and planetarium domes, making use of the latest graphic card technologies for rapid data throughput. In addition, OpenSpace enables simultaneous connections across the globe creating opportunity for shared experiences among audiences worldwide.
The project stems from the same academic collaboration between Sweden’s Linköping University (LiU) and the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) that led to the creation of Uniview and its parent company SCISS. Development of the software began several years ago through a close collaboration with NASA Goddard’s Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) to model space weather forecasting and continued with visualizations of NASA’s New Horizons mission to Pluto and ESA’s Rosetta mission. This promising set of preliminary work provided a foundation for recent NASA funding, which has extended the collaboration to include the University of Utah’s Scientific Computing and Imaging (SCI) Institute, New York University’s Tandon School of Engineering, multiple informal science institutions across the United States, and multiple, international vendors. Current areas of focus within OpenSpace include:
- Visualization of dynamic simulations via interactive volumetric rendering, as a priority for communicating research in astrophysics.
- Utilization of NASA’s SPICE observational geometry system with its Planetary Data Service (PDS) to enable space mission visualization that reveal how missions are designed to gather science.
- Globe browsing techniques across spatial and temporal scales to examine scientific campaigns on multiple planets, including close up surface exploration.
This repository contains the source code and example scenes for OpenSpace, but does not contain any data. To build and install the client, we refer to the Wiki pages here on GitHub, specifically building for Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Required preexisting dependencies are: Boost and Qt. Feel free to create issues for missing features, bug reports, or compile problems or contact us via email.
Regarding any issues, you are very welcome on our Slack support channel to which you can freely sign-up.
