Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for developing a three-dimensional representation of a terrain overflown by an aircraft able to be piloted by a pilot via a control station.
The method includes for representation of at least one current terrain element, following steps: determining a first distance between a first terrain element and the aircraft; determining a second distance between a second terrain element and the aircraft; and calculating a resultant display intensity of the current terrain element as a function of a difference between the first distance and the second distance.
