Abstract
In example embodiments, techniques are provided for refining tiles of an HLOD tree representing a model in order to display a view. A frontend module selects a tile represented by a node of the HLOD sub-tree and obtains information describing geometry of the selected tile. It determines that the selected tile requires refinement to support the view of the model based on the information describing geometry of the selected tile. A tile refinement strategy is determined from a plurality of tile refinement strategies. The frontend module applies the determined tile refinement strategy to the selected tile to generate one or more child tiles that have a higher resolution than the selected tile, the one or more child tiles represented by child nodes added to the HLOD sub-tree. The frontend module displays the view of the model at least in part by showing tiles represented by nodes of the HLOD sub-tree.
