지리정보를 정보시스템에서 사용하기 위해서는 복잡한 실세계의 형상을 단순화, 일반화하여 전산적으로 처리할 수 있는 정보구조로 변환해야 한다. 기존의 2차원 GIS에서는 실세계의 형상을 점, 선, 면 등의 2차원적인 형상으로 수치 정보화 하여 GIS 기능을 수행하고 있다. 하지만 지구상에 존재하는 지리적인 요소들은 3차원적인 공간정보로 구성되므로 이를 2차원으로 추상화시키면 많은 정보의 손실이 일어나게 되며, 기존의 2차원 GIS는 근본적인 한계가 존재하게 된다. 따라서, 실세계의 3차원적인 지리요소는 컴퓨터 상에서도 3차원으로 처리하는 것이 지리요소가 원래 지니고 있는 정보의 손실을 최소화 할 수 있으며, 실세계의 자연물 및 인공 시설물에 대한 3차원적인 표현과 분석을 위해서는 궁극적인 형태의 3차원 GIS가 필요한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 점, 선, 면 등의 2차원적인 형상을 3차원 공간 데이터로 수치 정보화 하기 위한 수단으로 VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language)을 이용하여 Virtual GIS 적용을 위한 3차원 가상세계를 생성함으로서 각종 의사결정을 보다 효율적이고 시각적으로 행할 수 있는 공간데이터를 작성하고자 하였다.

This paper presented a web-based virtual system to simulate forging operation. The system utilized simulation techniques of Finite Element Method (FEM) to analyze the forging process and Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) to visualize the simulation results in the web. The analysis using FEM could show mechanical information such as stresses and deformation profiles of a specimen during forging process and the analysis results were transferred into virtual space using VRML. Since the forging machine and specimen were modeled using Java and VRML, the forging machine and analysis results were browsed and integrated on the web that is interfaced to users through EAI to show the whole forging simulation. The developed system realized the working environment virtually so that education and experiment could be performed effectively even on the PC.

We provide methods to simulate noise propagation for an outdoor environment. Forward tracing method traces sound vectors from sources to receivers while geometry based computation finds all possible sound propagation between sources and receivers geometrically. We discuss defects in relying on a forward tracing method, and suggest a geometry based method. Geometry based method considers all possible direct and indirect(propagation via limited number of reflections) sound propagation saving computational time compared to forward sound tracing. Our simulation results are visualized using VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language).

A Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) database access in remote virtual reality control platform for dyeing enterprise $MiWi^{TM}$ thermal sensor network is presented in this paper. The VRML-ASP framework is introduced for 3D real-time data plotting in this application. The activities of thermal sensor nodes and sensor area are analyzed. The database access framework is optimized for $MiWi^{TM}$ wireless sensor networks. The experimental results show that VRML-ASP database access framework could be a reliable and competitive data-manage candidate for targeted virtual reality remote industrial visualization application.

In spite of the importance of nuclear power as one of major electric energies in Korea, the nuclear safety has become the most serious social issue in the operation of the nuclear power plant. In this paper, a virtual work simulation program was developed to predict exposure dose during radiation work in radwaste storage. The work simulation program was developed. using $Java ^{TM}$applet and VRML-virtual reality modeling language. A numerical algorithm to find the optimal work path which minimize exposure dose during the given work, was developed and exposure dose on the optimal work path was compared with that on the shortest path. Comparing with the shortest path for the given work, the predicted optimal path consumed longer work time by II% but reduced total exposure dose by 46%. The simulation result showed that the exposure dose depended on not only work time, but also the distance between the worker and the radiation source. The developed simulation program could be a useful tool for the planning of radioactive waste work to increase the radiation safety of workers.

Cloase-range image information from drones and ground-based camera has been frequently used in the field of disaster mitigation with 3D modeling and mapping. In addition, the utilization of virtual reality(VR) is being increased by implementing realistic 3D models with the VR technology simulating disaster circumstances in large scale. In this paper, we created a VR training program by extracting realistic 3D models from close-range images from unmanned aircraft and digital camera on hand and observed several issues occurring during the implementation and the effectiveness in the case of a VR application in training for disaster mitigation. First of all, we built up a scenario of disaster and created 3D models after image processing with the close-range imagery. The 3D models were imported into Unity, a software for creation of augmented/virtual reality, as a background for android-based mobile phones and VR environment was created with C#-based script language. The generated virtual reality includes a scenario in which the trainer moves to a safe place along the evacuation route in the event of a disaster, and it was considered that the successful training can be obtained with virtual reality. In addition, the training through the virtual reality has advantages relative to actual evacuation training in terms of cost, space and time efficiencies.

In this paper we present 3-D Navigation View, a three-dimensional visualization of indoor environment which serves as an intuitive and unified user interface for our developed indoor location tracking system via Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) in web environment. The extracted user's spatial information from indoor location tracking system was further processed to facilitate the location indication in virtual 3-D indoor environment based on his location in physical world. External Authoring Interface (EAI) provided by VRML enables the integration of interactive 3-D graphics into web and direct communication with the encapsulated Java applet to update position and viewpoint of user periodically in 3-D indoor environment. As any web browser with VRML viewer plug-in is able to run the platform independent 3-D Navigation View, specialized and expensive hardware or software can be disregarded.

Despite the increasing popularity of wireless sensor network, indoor positioning using low power IEEE 802.15.4 compliant radio had attracted an interest of many researchers in the last decade. Old fashionable indoor location sensing information has been presented in dull and unpleasant 2D image standard. This paper focused on visualizing high precision 3 dimensional RSSI-based (received signal strength indication) spatial sensing information in an interactive virtual reality on PDA. The developed system operates by capturing and extracting signal strength information at multiple pre-defined reference nodes to provide information in the area of interest, thus updating user's location in 3D indoor virtual map. VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) which specifically developed for 3D objects modeling is utilized to design 3D indoor environment.
