<min_tile_range_factor> Element
The <min_tile_range_factor> allows you to control the "switch-in" distance of map tiles. Specifically, osgEarth takes the width of a tile, multiplies it by this factor, and sets the result to be the far LOD.
The default value is 4.0. Larger values will cause tiles to switch in sooner (i.e. when the camera is farther away); smaller values means you must get closer to the tile before the next-higher resolution level loads.
Note: When you are viewing cartographic map layers (e.g. imagery with text or cartographic symbols) it can be good to use a lower range factor.
This element has no attributes nor any sub-elements.
Example
<map name="map with labels" type="geocentric"> <min_tile_range_factor>4.5</min_tile_range_factor> ... </map>
