Abstract
A system and method determines a Line-of-Sight volume for a specified point within a three dimensional model. Each data file includes data about geometric entities that make-up a geographic feature that may impact a Line-of-Sight from a focus. A processor is operative for processing the data files and creating a series of polygons that represent a shell of a Line-of-Sight volume to the focus at a specified resolution based on the process data files.
