Fractal Renderer

This renderer generates a photorealistic landscape image, primarily by generating artificial detail onto the surface using fractalization techniques. The Fractal renderer also understands basic ecological concepts and can realistically place vegetation. Terrains and 3D models are also supported.

Overlay Renderer

The overlay renderer draws the landscape without any fractalization, but overlays (or texture maps) an image onto the surface. This approach is useful for generating 3D images of topographic maps or satellite images.
