ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: 3D city models can be visualized on the web through OGC W3DS services. However this standard does not support a client-side definition of visualization rules in order to have a homogeneous visualization of 3D scenes representing data from different servers. But for 2D maps on the web this goal is achieved using a specific language [specification] – the Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) Specification. We present here an extension of the latest version of this specification into 3D as a separate profile and give first examples of implementing this 3D-SLD profile into our W3DS server implementation.
