topo4/topovista/explorer/README

TVX is a TopoVista "explorer" that simulates dynamic data creation or discovery.
Given a database (file directory) of terrain data, TVX "explores" the terrain.
As new areas are "discovered" they are registered with the token service.

A map display shows what's happening

   -- available data
   -- explorer location
   -- areas visited
   -- data discovered

Speed can be controlled.

Explorer algorithms are easily configured.

Current explorers:

    -- pure random walk
    -- weighted random walk (biased back towards start)
    -- constrained random walk (stays within available data)

    -- simple spiral
    -- random edge expansion of known region
    -- random jumps within current general area
