LOD
From Valve Developer Community
Level of Detail (LOD) is the principle of storing low-detail versions of an asset in memory and switching to them when the object is small/distant. This reduces the amount of processing required at the cost of increased memory size.
Care should be taken to ensure that the player does not notice the "pop" between LODs.
