3D data for real world virtual worlds


Stanford Humanities Lab
1 h 5 mn 27 s - 8 nov. 2007

"Mike Liebhold speaking at Stanford University on:
Abstract 3D data, maps, and software will change the way we compute and interact with spatial services.
Moving beyond simple texture mapped terrain and boxes,
new 3D mapping frameworks are rapidly evolving
into platforms for real world virtual world media,
interaction, commerce, and science.

"In this talk I'll review work of various groups who are building different components of a 3D Geoweb.
I will first describe how their 3D data and software will work as a platform for a 3D real world virtual world,
and then, what kinds of new applications and user experiences might be developed on these platforms,
and then finish with a brief discussion of prospects and mechanisms for data interoperability allowing users to create, discover, use, and exchange 3D data across platforms."
