Abstract
A method for augmenting a synthetic vision system of a vehicle includes receiving, with a processor, signals indicative of real-time sensor data of a terrain for the vehicle via one or more acquisition devices; creating, with the processor, a terrain mesh of the terrain in response to the receiving of the sensor data; correlating, with the processor, the terrain mesh with preloaded terrain data of the terrain; creating, with the processor, a multispectral image of the terrain in response to the correlating the terrain mesh with the preloaded data; and texturing, with the processor, the terrain mesh for display on a display device.
