Ho

Try the freeware aproaches first. They might do the trick. There are some
data format issues, but if you get to that please fell free to ask.

Cheers again

Subject: GISList: visualisation


> Dear all,
>
> I would like some advice please.
>
> I want to visualise some 3D terrain models. This is likely to include some
> rotation, zooming in, development of fly-throughs and later, addition of
> textures to make the scenes more 'life-like'. I have built the DEM from
UK
> Ordnance Survey (the UK's national mapping organisation) data and I have
> draped raster files over the top (several big TIF files).
>
> Currently I am using ArcScene to enable my visualisation, but there seem
to
> be limits to the program. Part of the problem is that my graphics card is
> unable to cope with the data volumes, but the process of developing
> fly-throughs seems to be quite long-winded (export of individual scenes to
> another software package etc.) and adding textures is, as far as know,
> impossible.
>
> I am limited to using ArcGIS for our GIS processing, but we have some
money
> available to buy visualisation software. Does anybody have any thoughts,
> experiences, comments on visulisation software of GIS data.

> Many thanks in advance
