Network-based visualization of 3D landscapes and city models

IEEE Comput Graph Appl. 2007 Nov-Dec;27(6):70-9. doi: 10.1109/mcg.2007.155.

Abstract

To improve the visualization of large 3D landscapes and city models in a network environment, the authors use two different types of hierarchical level-of-detail models for terrain and groups of buildings. They also leverage the models to implement progressive streaming in both client-server and peer-to-peer network architectures.
