About this technology

Overview

The synthterrain package is software to support the creation of synthetic terrain (at this time craters and rock placement) on worlds in the solar system. This software will implement scientific models to calculate realistic crater populations in size, depth, and degradation state, as well as rock size frequency distributions. This software will enable the the creation of realistic (but synthetic) terrain models for different worlds in the solar system.
