  • 3D Gis Data Model Using Open Source Software
    ISPRS Archive Vol. XXXVIII, Part 4-8-2-W9, "Core Spatial Databases - Updating, Maintenance and Services – from Theory to Practice", Haifa, Israel, 2010 3D GIS DATA MODEL USING OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE A. Scianna, A. Ammoscato CNR-ICAR, Viale delle Scienze edificio 11, 90128 Palermo, Italy – [email protected],[email protected] Commission IV, ICWG IV/8 KEY WORDS: Cartography, GIS, Technology, Interoperability, Spatial, Global-Environmental-Databases ABSTRACT: Today many kinds of applications requires data containing actual three-dimensional data; fields like urban and town planning and pollution studies need 3D data, both for visualization purpose, as well as carry out many spatial analysis. This research -Management and use of distributed 3D data by open source Web-GIS software - is part of the Italian "PRIN 2007"* research project, aimed to build urban and suburban 3D models, and to interact with them using open source software only. Particularly free and open source software, used for the experimentation here shown, are Blender and PostGIS; the first one has been used to build and structure three-dimensional data, the second one for data allocation. These software interact using scripts, written in Python language. Buildings have been modeled upon the GIANT3D model (Geographical Interoperable Advanced Numerical Topological 3- Dimensional Model) developed in the research "PRIN 2004", regarding "Evolved structure of numerical cartography for Gis and Web-GIS". Python scripts, activated by Blender, allow to allocate data into a spatial database implemented through PostgreSQL and PostGis, that could be a remote database somewhere on the net; all geometrical and topological information, implemented in the 3D model, are so transferred in PostGIS.

  • Getting Started (Pdf)
    GETTING STARTED PHOTO REALISTIC RENDERS OF YOUR 3D MODELS Available for Ver. 1.01 © Kerkythea 2008 Echo Date: April 24th, 2008 GETTING STARTED Page 1 of 41 Written by: The KT Team GETTING STARTED Preface: Kerkythea is a standalone render engine, using physically accurate materials and lights, aiming for the best quality rendering in the most efficient timeframe. The target of Kerkythea is to simplify the task of quality rendering by providing the necessary tools to automate scene setup, such as staging using the GL real-time viewer, material editor, general/render settings, editors, etc., under a common interface. Reaching now the 4th year of development and gaining popularity, I want to believe that KT can now be considered among the top freeware/open source render engines and can be used for both academic and commercial purposes. In the beginning of 2008, we have a strong and rapidly growing community and a website that is more "alive" than ever! KT2008 Echo is very powerful release with a lot of improvements. Kerkythea has grown constantly over the last year, growing into a standard rendering application among architectural studios and extensively used within educational institutes. Of course there are a lot of things that can be added and improved. But we are really proud of reaching a high quality and stable application that is more than usable for commercial purposes with an amazing zero cost! Ioannis Pantazopoulos January 2008 Like the heading is saying, this is a Getting Started “step-by-step guide” and it’s designed to get you started using Kerkythea 2008 Echo.

Artur talks with Digital Art Live about his love of the ocean, his philosophy of beauty, and the techniques he uses to make his pictures. Picture: “The Sentinels” 12 ARTUR ROSA PORTUGAL VUE | PHOTOSHOP | POSER | ZBRUSH WEB DAL: Artur, welcome back to Digital Art Live magazine. We last interviewed you in our special #50 issue of the old 3D Art Direct magazine. That was back in early 2015, when we mainly focussed on your architectural series “White- Orange World” and your forest pictures. In this ‘Future Oceans’ themed issue of Digital Art Live we’d like to focus on some of your many ocean colony pictures and your recent sea view and sea -cave pictures. Which are superb, by the way! Some of the very best Vue work I’ve seen. Your recent work of the last six months is outstanding, even more so that the work you made in the early and mid 2010s. You must be very pleased at the level of achievement that you can now reach by using Vue and Photoshop? AR: Thank you for having me again, and thank you for the compliment and feedback. I’m humbled and honoured that my work may be of interest for your readers. To be honest, I’m never quite sure if my work is getting better or worse.

Tutkimusprojektit kasvavat jatkuvasti, mikä aiheuttaa tarpeen suuremmalle tietokoneteholle ja lisää kustannuksia. Ratkaisuksi tähän ongelmaan tiedemiehet ovat kehittäneet hajautetun laskennan järjestelmiä, joiden tarkoituksena on tarjota vaihtoehto kalliille supertietokoneille. Näiden järjestelmien toiminta perustuu yhteisön lahjoittamaan tietokonetehoon. Open Rendering Environment on Laurea-ammattikorkeakoulun aloittama projekti, jonka tärkein tuotos on yhteisöllinen renderöintipalvelu Renderfarm.fi. Palvelu hyödyntää hajautettua laskentaa nopeuttamaan 3D-animaatioiden renderöintiä. Tämä tarjoaa uusia mahdollisuuksia mallintajille ja animaatioelokuvien tekijöille joilta tavallisesti kuluu paljon aikaa ja tietokoneresursseja töidensä valmiiksi saattamiseksi.
