IT3D-DBGS has the ability to create raised features. These include raised forests and raised buildings. The intelligent algorithms of the raised features support profiled walls and intelligent texturing.

Intelligent texturing allows you to define multiple textures for a wall. Depending on the length of the wall segment, the texture that best fits that horizontal wrap will be applied to the wall segment. This gives you better appearing texture compared with other solutions because the textures are not disproportionately stretched or compressed. Also this gives you much more diverse looking result. Since the segments of the features throughout the database will have different lengths, you will have different textures applied. These buildings will look different because of the different textures, but they were created from only one building definition.

Profiled walls allow you to define multiple sections of the complete side wall. These profile components also support the intelligent texturing. The profile components allow you to define multiple floors such as a ground floor component with doors, overhangs, set backs, or pitched roofs. The wall generation algorithm is intelligent enough to prevent penetrating faces where the component buffer self intersects.
