TerraVision on the Grid: Interactive Immersive Fly-Throughs Using Distributed Image Servers
TerraVision, part of DARPA's MAGIC project,
was developed to demonstrate a high-speed, wide-area IP/ATM network for
real-time terrain visualization and high-speed distributed storage systems.
Running on an ImmersaDesk, users roam in real time about a 3D landscape,
created from elevation data and registered aerial images and comprised
of a TB of data. TerraVision is built using VRML 2.0, enabling users
with VRML browsers to visualize large datasets from remote locations.
