Recent years have witnessed the rapid development and wide adoption of immersive head-mounted devices, such as HTC VIVE, Oculus Rift, and Microsoft HoloLens. These immersive devices have the potential to significantly extend the methodology of urban visual analytics by providing critical 3D context information and creating a sense of presence. In this paper, we propose an theoretical model to characterize the visualizations in immersive urban analytics. Furthermore, based on our comprehensive and concise model, we contribute a typology of combination methods of 2D and 3D visualizations that distinguish between linked views, embedded views, and mixed views. We also propose a supporting guideline to assist users in selecting a proper view under certain circumstances by considering visual geometry and spatial distribution of the 2D and 3D visualizations. Finally, based on existing works, possible future research opportunities are explored and discussed.

For the next generation neutrino experiment, number of experienced researchers and engineers in research institutes and companies related to PMT fabrication in China jointly worked on the large area MCP-PMT collaboration group. In the past 5 years by collaborative work, the 8-inch and 20-inch prototypes were produced. And also get the high detection efficiency 20-inch MCP-PMT for JUNO in 2015, and get the 75% order of the JUNO-PMT. This manuscript will introduce the progress of the R&D of this new design of the MCP-PMT, also the performance tested result in the PMT Lab in IHEP.
