XNavigator Description

An interactive 3D viewer and integrated client for exploring virtual city and landscape models XNavigator is an interactive 3D viewer and integrated client for exploring virtual city and landscape models. A wide range of interaction and navigation possibilities makes it easy to visualize and analyze very detailed virtual urban environments. The software is built on Java technology and runs on a wide range of platforms, including Windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux, and Solaris. The 3D graphics is based on OpenGL hardware acceleration. The Java technology also allows an easy integration into webpages and online portals. XNavigator relies on a server client architecture. Instead of defining its own proprietary communication protocols, open OGC standards are used. The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) defines standards for accessing spatial information over the internet. The main 3D content is downloaded from a Web 3D Service (W3DS). Additional OGC services which can be accessed include: *Web Map Service (WMS) *Open Location Services (OpenLS) including Route Service, Directory Service, and Geocoder *Catalog Service for Web (CSW) ebRIM profile *Web Feature Service (WFS) serving GML3 and CityGML content The main benefit of using open standards is that existing components can be used. Features *Navigate freely through your virtual city model *Dynamic streaming of 3D content. Content ist downloaded from 3D server on demand *Select features and display additional attribute information and adresses *Use the viewer as 3D route planning tool. *Select month and daytime and change the lighting *Renderer can be switched to wire frame, flat, and phong shading *Modify the appearance of the scene based on attributes, e.g. highlight buildings of specific type
