I don't have 198 CHF on me right now. http://standards.sedris.org/18026_Ed2/ISO_IEC_18026_Ed2/ISO_IEC_18026_COVER.html - sedris free originator copy of 18026 - its vast and (like DIS) not practically implementable. - Andreas said: Better to use sedris .cpp library if you can. http://standards.sedris.org/ x you have to sign in x still problem of how to do convenience-constants in x3d --- string or some A:B thing included in xml 2020 - working on WM web mercator x Apr 26,2020 geo inside Laerset.Layer does not work properly - see World/World33stars_layersetHud.x3d
