Abstract
Photorealistic 3D Site Visualization and Presentation for ArcView 3D Analyst Data
Track: New Technology and Technology Integration
Author(s): Chuck Clark
ArcView 3D Analyst is a powerful analysis and visualization tool for 3D GIS data. However, in most cases 3D cartographic presentations rely on symbolic representations. Abstract symbols, whether 2D or 3D, are more difficult for the majority of people to understand than photorealistic representations. 3D Producer is a new visualization solution that solves this problem. It reads TINs, GRIDS, and shapefiles plus aerial or satellite TIFF images and enables the user to transform the data into a stunning, photorealistic, 3D site visualization. Users can augment scenes with photorealistic 3D feature models and create digital imagery and video for electronic distribution.
