3D Visualization for Microscopic Traffic Data Sources
نویسندگان
چکیده
The typical approach to realistic 3D visualization of microscopic traffic data is usually locationspecific and hence requires a lot of effort from the user to generate an eye-pleasing model. We present a simulation/location/data-neutral 3D visualization software module that allows the 3D display of an XML-coded road network, vehicles and communication involving vehicles. These objects are automatically modeled from source data with empty space filled in an intelligent way. The simulation can be freely explored in time and space. Vehicles can be color-coded, viewed from above or from the driver’s perspective, or alternatively in a traditional 2D form.

Visualization Techniques for 3D Microscopic Imaging Data
Three-dimensional (3D) microscopic imaging techniques such as confocal microscopy have become a common tool in measuring cellular structures. While computer volume visualization has advanced into a sophisticated level in medical applications, much fewer studies have been made on data acquired by the 3D microscopic imaging techniques. To optimize the visualization of such data, it is important t...
متن کاملSanta Fe on Fire: Agent-based Modeling of Wildfire Evacuation Dynamics
This paper reviews a recent RedfishGroup project for the City of Santa Fe Fire and Police Department integrating wildfire simulation and agent-based modeling of traffic dynamics. Visualizations of the evacuation dynamics were used to communicate with citizens dangers faced during evacuations and to explore when shelter-in-place is a reasonable alternative to evacuation. Additional uses of the m...
متن کاملFine grained traffic state estimation and visualization
Tools for visualizing the current traffic state are used by local authorities for strategic monitoring of the traffic network and by everyday users for planning their journey. Popular visualizations include those provided by Google maps and by Inrix. Both employ a “traffic light” colour coding system where roads on a map are coloured green if traffic is flowing normally and red or black if ther...
متن کاملToward a Scalable Visualization System for Network Traffic Monitoring
With the multiplication of attacks against computer networks, system administrators are required to monitor carefully the traffic exchanged by the networks they manage. However, that monitoring task is increasingly laborious because of the augmentation of the amount of data to analyze. And that trend is going to intensify with the explosion of the number of devices connected to computer network...
متن کاملVisualization and Analysis of 3D Microscopic Images
In a wide range of biological studies, it is highly desirable to visualize and analyze three-dimensional (3D) microscopic images. In this primer, we first introduce several major methods for visualizing typical 3D images and related multi-scale, multi-time-point, multi-color data sets. Then, we discuss three key categories of image analysis tasks, namely segmentation, registration, and annotati...
