Virtual Reality Model in Geographical Information Systems

Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2011, Vol 4, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper presents a software architecture to implement a virtual reality model inside the Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Spatial data provides a schematic view of reality, so it is necessary to use raster data to give more realism to the studied geographic area. Using images as background for the studied geographical area is a simple way to accurately reflect reality on the ground. Satellite images, orthophotoplans are several sources of such raster data can be used in GIS. In the case of an urban area, immersive virtual reality models are the most appropriate models to present the reality more realistic.
