osgEarth adds geospatially accurate 3D maps to your C++ application.
osgEarth builds on trusted open source technologies like OpenSceneGraph and GDAL to give you high-performance, accurate terrain and map rendering. It supports a myriad of geospatial data formats and map projections.
Windows users can install the latest version of osgEarth through vcpkg:
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg.git
cd vcpkg && bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
vcpkg install osgearth:x64-windowsThis will take a while the first time as vcpkg builds osgEarth and its dependencies.
osgearth_imgui is the main command-line viewer. osgearth_viewer is a stripped-down viewer without any GUI.
Both of these read "earth files", XML files that describe the contents of a map.
You can find example earth files in the tests folder of the repo.
