I want to make a WPF desktop-app to look very similar to Google Earth (but
offline only). I have my own heightmaps/textures but I want to know if its
possible to create an app similar to GE, with a dynamically generated mesh
and texture-resolution. I also need pixel-wide overlayed vector-graphics such
as country-borders etc (not rendered onto the texture). Is WPF practical for
this purpose?
