Three-dimensional maps are fundamental tools for presenting, exploring, and manipulating geo data. This paper describes multiresolution concepts for 3D maps and their texture-base...
Background: Sharing data is a tenet of science, yet commonplace in only a few subdisciplines. Recognizing that a data sharing culture is unlikely to be achieved without policy gui...
Geographical information systems are more and more based on a DBMS with spatial extensions, which is also the case for the system described in this paper. The design and implementa...
Interactive 3D geovirtual environments (GeoVE), such as 3D virtual city and landscape models, are important tools to communicate geo-spatial information. Usually, this includes st...
