چکیده
This paper gives an overview of several aspects of visualization for city planning as they were used in the project ViSuCity. The overall objective of ViSuCity is to develop an effective web-based, interactive visualization demonstrator, ViSuCity, to support sustainable city planning in terms of information sharing, analysis, development, presentation and communication of ideas and proposals throughout the city planning processes. In this paper, we discuss and show some results regarding LOD, scalability, streaming, and examples of visualization of roads, etc that are important for city planning.
