/**
 * Converts a height field in the form of a greyscale image into a scene
 * consisting of a number of GeomNodes.
 *
 * The tesselation uses an LOD algorithm.  You supply a "focal point" (X,Y)
 * which tells the tesselator where the bulk of the detail should be
 * concentrated.  The intent is that as the player walks around the terrain,
 * you should occasionally move the focal point to wherever the player is.
 * You should not move the focal point every frame: tesselation is not that
 * fast.  Also, changing the focal point may cause popping, so it is best to
 * minimize the number of changes.  There are a number of parameters that you
 * can use to control tesselation, such as a target polygon count, and a
 * visibility radius.
 *
 * The heightfield needs to be a multiple of 128 pixels in each dimension.  It
 * does not need to be square, and it does not need to be a power of two.  For
 * example, a 384 x 640 heightfield is fine.  Be aware that tesselation time
 * is proportional to heightfield area, so if you plan to use a size larger
 * than about 512x512, it may be desirable to benchmark.
 *
 * Altering parameters, such as the poly count, the view radius, or the focal
 * point, does not alter any GeomNodes already generated.  Parameter changes
 * only affect subsequently-generated GeomNodes.  It is possible to cache many
 * different tesselations of the same terrain.
