Abstract
A method of increasing situational awareness of terrain is disclosed. A representation of a terrain feature is generated from a source of stored data. A distance from a reference point to the terrain feature is determined. The representation of the terrain feature is attenuated if the distance from the reference point to the terrain feature is within a predetermined range. The representation of the terrain feature is displayed.
