Project Atlante: An Experiment in Building Earth-Scale Worlds with UE Tools Only | Unreal Fest 2024

Watch this recorded session from Unreal Fest Seattle 2024 in which we dive into the Unreal Engine simulation demo Project Atlante.

Project Atlante is an Epic Games initiative that aims to promote the adoption of UE for next-generation simulators across automotive, civil engineering, transportation, aerospace, and defense—and by extension, for all types of digital twins.

In this session, we explore the challenges and solutions around streaming Earth-scale worlds from content streaming to the production of open worlds from real-life geospatial data, passing through chunking and packaging along the way.

Thanks for the video and for sharing your opinion about this.
It was very really interesting to listen to you.

Even tho this is only a tech demo/demonstration of tools and potentials, what they have here, is come further than Earth2

i have a project where i need to present a monorail project of 65km to stakeholders . in the future i would love to just select a geocell of of let's say 50x50 kms having it automatically download the elevation and land cover data, i can then add shp files, openstreet data and georeferenced lidar and photogrammetry geometry which will be directly put in their respective location in the site . the final product will be an interactive presentation generated by ue5 where stakeholders and engineers can select stations, see future road, building to be demolished …etc. . the actual georeferencing system is really not artist friendly . which u best of luck for your project Mr Alban.

Have the tutorials for developers already been released?

Is there an example project for this (Project Atlante) available somewhere? How detailed can the ground models be? I have been trying to accomplish something very similar with ShaderWorld and a planet mesh creator. I would think PCG would make the editor hard to use, unless you are streaming in parts of the world slowly. Making adjustments to large PCGs is like, start generating and spawning chunks, and then look away for a while because it's so resource intensive.

How many color values can u have in a BiomeMap?
If you download Landsat layer data with your heightmap data (GIS) or create a Landsat layer your self in ArcGIS/QGIS. Then you can use several different colors and color values/intensity variations to sample out different forest layers(Fir/Pine/Beech, Broadleaf etc, grass fields, Agricultural fields, logging areas, Nursery forest areas, Swamps and so on...

So then i wonder if it's possible to use a texture that has more then just 3 distinctive colors (RGB) but several shades "as from a color chart"
And then from each biome definition set the specific Color/Shade by using the HEX/RGB/HSV. For example: #990002 = R:153 - G:0 - B:2 = Hue: 359.22° Saturation: 100% Value: 60%
So if you are using other shades of red for other layer samples, then there would need to be a limiter on min/max the definition can spawn outside of that specific color shade value (or something!) im not a expert in colors 😅

Hi everyone, we're trying to create a rocket simulation game like Kerbal Space Program with Unity HDRP. This video doesn't seem to mention that could I create multiple planets with dynamic position in double precision coordinate, with dymanic collision detection? If so, I'll give up using Unity

I was trying to build big world, pc didnt like it.

[sierradeltasmelt]

Awesome stuff. Starting to think GTA won't be able to compete by the time it releases

How was such a large terrain model imported into UE5? In my much smaller project, when trying to use 2 GB of terrain, the engine crashed.

[Ryorr]

Has anyone thought of flight simulator in unreal engine 5?

[firedragondbz]

Getting ready for an OP version of Google Earth LOL.

Wouldn't be easier to buy them 😋 and integrate this plugin in UE 5.7(8)(9) ?

I personally want the entire known universe mapped out . Updated as soon as discoveries get made.

All done in 4D. You have the option to go back and forth of object oriented history. From beginning to the end- that we know of.

So this demo at 25 minutes in runs essentially at 720p on a 3080...

But hey, upscaling is amazing right...
