NAME¶

osgearth_cache - manage osgEarth's cache

SYNOPSIS¶

osgearth_cache
[--list | --seed | --estimate | --threads | --min-level level | --max-level level | --bounds xmin ymin xmax ymax | --index shapefile | --cache-path path | --cache-type type | --purge] file.earth

DESCRIPTION¶

osgearth_cache can be used to manage osgEarth's cache. The most common usage of osgearth_cache is to populate a cache in a non-interactive manner using the --seed argument. See Caching ⟨http://docs.osgearth.org/en/latest/user/caching.html⟩ for more information on caching.

OPTIONS¶

--list

Lists info about the cache in a .earth file

--seed

Seeds the cache in a .earth file

--estimate

Print out an estimation of the number of tiles, disk space and time it will take to perform this seed operation

--threads

The number of threads to use for the seed operation (default=1)

--min-level level

Lowest LOD level to seed (default=0)

--max-level level

Highest LOD level to seed (default=highest available)

--bounds xmin ymin xmax ymax

Geospatial bounding box to seed (in map coordinates; default=entire map)

--index shapefile

Loads a shapefile (.shp) and uses the feature extents to set the cache seeding bounding box(es). For each feature in the shapefile, adds a bounding box (similar to --bounds) to constrain the region you wish to cache.

--cache-path path

Overrides the cache path in the .earth file

--cache-type type

Overrides the cache type in the .earth file

--purge

Purges a layer cache in a .earth file

file.earth

Path to the earth file
