This paper presents a method for a physically based real-time terrain deformation. The motivation originates from the fact that there exist many deformable models, but the terrain deformation is a special problem in the field of computer graphics. OpenSceneGraph toolkit provides an excellent environment for the large terrain visualization and it was accepted as a standard for many graphic specialists. Therefore, the main goal of this method is the local deformation ability of some large terrain, which is represented by a sub-graph of OpenSceneGraph scene. However, the technique may be easily adaptable to any terrain representation. The results show a great potential of the used method and thus there is outlined the future work at the end.
