چکیده
In this paper we show how to efficiently integrate traditional GIS data into terrain models in order to generate complete 3D maps with little overhead for textures. The results meet the requirements for the Web 3D Service (W3DS), a proposal for the standardization for delivering 3D web maps. Our approach is designed to create fully vectorized 3D scenes that deliver the best possible quality and do not require dynamic texture generation and handling. We describe the mesh operations for integrating polygonal GIS data like forests, parks, buildings blocks, or streets into the terrain mesh and compare the results with a texture based approach.

Rapid 3D City Model Approximation from Publicly Available Geographic Data Sources and Georeferenced Aerial Images
We present a fully automatic, objectcentered approach for creating 3D city models by combining public domain geographic information with highly overlapping aerial images. In a first step, we create a polygonal 3D surface mesh from terrain elevation data provided by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission. Second, we transfer building outline polygons from 2D vector maps provided by the OpenStreetM...
متن کاملVisualization of Polygon-based Data as a Continuous Surface
Most information for spatial analysis and research in economic and social geography is aggregated into totals associated with units which are polygons. To facilitate comparisons between the units the totals are normalized by a reference variable, such as the area of the polygon. Such kind of data is usually visualized as 2D or 3D choropleth maps, but an alternative is a continuous surface. The ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Real-Time Continuous Terrain Level of Detail Algorithms
In the world of 3D graphics many applications require the ability to render large 3D terrains in an efficient manner. To satisfy this need, algorithms have been devised that render height fields using a real-time continuous level of detail technique. Instead of drawing each of the many triangles that can make up a terrain, this technique renders the terrain with a highly reduced number of polyg...

Focusing on the visual effect deficiency in the application of standard LOD algorithm for 3D landscape design, 3D landscape designing model based on terrain complexity collision and shading rendering is built in this paper. First, 3D landscape design models are devided into two categories, regular terrain and irregular terrain, and different rules are respectively adopted during model building....
متن کامل3D Modelling of Under Ground Burried Objects Based on Ground Penetration Radar
There is a growing demand for mapping and 3D modelling of buried objects such as pipelines, agricultural hetitage, landmines and other buried objects. Usually, large scale and high resolution maps from these objects are needed. Manually map generation and modeling of these objects are cost and time consuming and is dependent on lots of resources. Therefore, automating the subsurface mapping and...
