Mountain ranges, volcanic fields and desert basins of the Mojave National Preserve at their real size

43 real-world terrains from LIDAR elevation data. Peaks, mountain fronts, volcanic cones, washes and wide desert valleys of the Mojave National Preserve in southeastern California. Every heightmap covers 8.128 x 8.128 km (about 8 x 8 km, 64 square km) with 1 m between samples. Every Unity terrain sample is an original heightmap pixel - nothing is stretched or resampled - and 1 Unity unit is 1 metre.

✦ GOOD TO KNOW

The separate Mojave 4K pack holds 4 x 4 km sections of this same preserve, so many of its maps lie inside or overlap the maps of this pack.

✦ WHAT'S INSIDE

• 43 heightmaps - 16-bit PNG, 8129 x 8129 px, height range from 245.8 m to 1305.6 m
• 3 demo levels x 3 render pipelines - 9 ready scenes to fly or walk through: High Peaks, Mountain Front, Volcanic Field
• Terrain Builder - one click turns any heightmap into seamless real-scale Unity terrains
• Mojave ground look - 6 desert ground layers in 4K (desert pavement, dry scrub soil, ochre stony soil, warm brown scree, rock, sandy wash gravel), painted automatically from slope and landform

✦ FEATURES

• Exact scale - size and height range are in every file name and inside every PNG, and the builder reads them for you
• Anti-tiling terrain shaders - every layer blends three texture sizes by viewing distance, so no repeating patterns
• Seamless 2 x 2 tiles - each map is split into 4 terrains of 4097 samples (Unity's limit) that share their edge pixels
• Verify - compares every terrain height with the original pixels

✦ PERFORMANCE

• Native 3840 x 2160 - no upscaling, demo scenes in player builds: Built-in 429-626 FPS · URP 248-340 FPS · HDRP 186-214 FPS (RTX 3090)

✦ DEMO CONTROLS

Mouse look · WASD move · Shift fast · G walk at 1.8 m eye height · F fly · N / P next / previous level · H help

✦ UNITY 2022.3 AND ABOVE

Built-in, URP and HDRP in one package. Tools > Lidar Terrains > Project Setup switches on terrain holes in your pipeline asset with one click.

✦ USE CASES

Open-world games · flight and driving simulators · hiking and survival games · cinematics · terrain studies. The heightmaps also work in other tools: 16-bit PNG, north up, size and height range in the file name.
