  1. 16. Visualizing the third dimension : map guidelines for a 3D detailed development plan

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Stephanie Elizabeth Judge; [2019]
    Keywords : physical geography and ecosystem analysis; 3D Visualization; public participation; map guidelines; detailed development plan; sustainable development; geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Public participation during urban development is key for setting a project up for success and for supporting sustainable growth, but current detailed development plans available in paper-based 2D format are difficult for the public to understand. The literature has shown that the introduction of 3D visualizations can improve citizens’ understanding of a plan proposal; however, moving from static 2D to digital 3D space requires effective visualization tailored to this specific application.

    Author : Anton Eriksson; [2018]
    Keywords : networks; visualization; clustering; community detection; graph layout;

    Abstract : Several applied sciences model system dynamics with networks. Since networks often contain thousands or millions of nodes and links, researchers have developed methods that reveal and high- light their essential structures. READ MORE

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Robin Offermo; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : When we think of a map, most of the time, we think of the two dimensional map that is drawn on paper, or nowadays more often on the screen of a smart-phone. Maps are often either the starting point or the result of cartography and mapping and are used for many Earth science applications. READ MORE
