Level Of Detail for Foliage

for a tree with n original leaves the scaling factor s(k)
for a reduced number of leaves k is:



  • the weighting factor w enables the user to control the
    scaling factor between no scaling and area conserving scaling.

  • the leaf removal order is crucial!
    • can be defined in a preprocessing step
