Left: Recursive subdivision of a cube into octants. Right: The corresponding octree.
Within MREA resources, the AROT section stores an octree which is used to accelerate rendering of areas in back-to-front order.
Octrees are a form of BSP tree that subdivide an area in 3-dimensions. They are structured recursively, starting with a root node and traversing their way to individual leaf nodes. A valid octant will split sub-octants across 3-tiers, one for each dimension of euclidean space.
