Interactive visualization of three dimensional pipelines using Ajax and X3D

摘要

The developments of three dimensional pipelines are mainly on the COM component of GIS software,three dimensional visualization library and client-sever software architectures.These methods are still not sufficient in supporting remote management of 3D pipelines,because the client and the server involved in the process may require two-way communication frequently as well as modeling results visualization intuitively.In this paper we proposed a solution to 3D pipeline management system,which provides convenience of operation,exactness of position and rapidness of update for the pipelines in the web context.We realized web-based interactive visualization for 3D pipelines using AJAX and X3D.
