Abstract

The visualization of 3D city information is the precondition and foundation to construct Digital City and the uniformity of 2D and 3D GIS platforms to make the Digital City more widely applicable. This article firstly analyzes some kinds of 3D visualization software. Secondly, using the Google SketchUp and ArcGIS as examples and discuss the 3D visualization of city information and modeling, and lastly, carrying out research on the 3D model construction process.
