3D Cadastres Best Practices, Chapter 5: Visualization and New Opportunities

This paper proposes a discussion on opportunities offered by 3D visualization to improve the understanding and the analysis of cadastre data. It first introduce the rationale of having 3D visualization functionalities in the context of cadastre applications. Second the publication outline some basic concepts in 3D visualization. This section...

3D Cadastre Visualization: Recent Progress and Future Directions

The 3D Cadastre has been investigated from many viewpoints (including legal, organizational and technical). However, to date little research has focused specifically on visualizationrelated aspects despite the value-added of the third dimension. The paper first proposes an overview of progress made in the last five years in 3D cadastral...

Transparency Performance in the 3D Visualization of Bounding Legal and Physical Objects: Preliminary Results of a Survey

This paper presents a third, subsequent, experiment to assess the performance of various visual variables for better visualization of 3D cadastre models. The case study is a 3D spatial representation of an apartment building with co-ownership units. The third experiment focuses on the following hypotheses “Transparency is performing to...

Visualization Principles in 3D Cadastre: A First Assessment of Visual Variables

This paper proposes to investigate which among visual variables are more appropriate (if they are) for geo-visualization of 3D legal units in a probable 3D cadastre system. Visual variables, as proposed by Bertin (1983), include position, size, shape, value, color, orientation and texture. The appropriateness is evaluated base on whether a...
