A scene generator is a
computer model
Computer simulation is the process of mathematical modelling, performed on a computer, which is designed to predict the behaviour of, or the outcome of, a real-world or physical system. The reliability of some mathematical models can be deter ...

behavioral model
The behavioral approach to systems theory and control theory was initiated in the late-1970s by J. C. Willems as a result of resolving inconsistencies present in classical approaches based on state-space, transfer function, and convolution represe ...

Usually found associated with the synthetic modeling of electro-magnetic spectral domains like Optical (Visible, IR,
UV) or Radio Frequency. A ''hyperspectral scene generator'' is when multiple electro-magnetic spectra can be handled simultaneously.
