For airport stuff, vector drawing capabilities like those available via Canvas (Canvas.Path/ShivaVG) could come in handy - so all that is needed is to "bridge" both worlds: to expose a Canvas to shader space so that you can use it, but also so that an arbitrary Canvas can be draped over terrain. | For airport stuff, vector drawing capabilities like those available via Canvas (Canvas.Path/ShivaVG) could come in handy - so all that is needed is to "bridge" both worlds: to expose a Canvas to shader space so that you can use it, but also so that an arbitrary Canvas can be draped over terrain. | ||
