roam
v.
travel about aimlessly, wander, drift, rove
ROAM
ROAM, or Real Time Optimally Adapting Mesh, is a continuous
level of detail algorithm that optimizes terrain
meshes. On modern computers, sometimes it is more effective to send a small amount of unneeded polygons to the
GPU, rather than burden the
CPU with LOD calculations -- making algorithms like geomipmapping more effective than ROAM.
