“…As illustrated in Figure 2, we introduce SemanticTransformation for the 3D boundary explosion and Un-bounded3DStroke for the unbounded 3D space with parameterized vertical line components. The class name in the model is kept close, if possible, to those in ISO 19117, OGC SE, and Bocher and Ertz's model [30]. In the proposed 3D cadastre DCM, the symbolic rule is organized by FeatureTypeStyle class.…”

Structurally describing the portrayal-related information by using a standalone Digital Cartographic Model on top of a Digital Landscape Model has been proved applicable and beneficial for 2D mapping but has not yet been applied to 3D cadastre. This study, therefore, evaluates the applicability of digital cartographic model and the corresponding visualization pipeline for 3D cadastre in the context of Chinese urban cadastre. This research starts by identifying the requirements and design features of 3D cadastre mapping through a literature review and interviews with users and cartographers. Addressing the limitations of the existing general-purpose models, this paper proposes an ad hoc 3D cadastre digital cartographic model. The main developments of the proposed model are the inclusion of 3D content modeling, the support of the compound 3D symbols, and the introduction of the semantic transformation. The proposed model is then embedded into three parts of the cadastre visualization pipeline: the symbolic rule design, graphic content creation, and scene dissemination. The empirical result of qualitative proof-of-concept user tests supports that the proposed visualization pipeline is applicable and yields promising visualization results. The digital cartographic model-based visualization pipeline is a novel 3D cadastre mapping paradigm that facilitates designing, producing, sharing, and administrating.

“…In our AR/MR experimentations, augmented data contain mainly 3D models, coming from a 3D reference database or from an urban project, requiring to be rendered in a 3D environment. Therefore, we call for an extension of existing stylization specifications from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), such as Style Layer Descriptor (SLD) and Symbology Encoding (SE) specifications (Lupp, 2007, Müller, 2006, Bocher and Ertz, 2018, to 3D standards formalizing 3D styles, as started in (Christophe et al, 2016, Brasebin et al, 2016, such as illumination properties and possible expressive stylizations.…”

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In this paper, we assume that augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) are relevant contexts for 3D urban geovisualization, especially in order to support the design of the urban spaces. We propose to design an in situ MR application, that could be helpful for urban designers, providing tools to interactively remove or replace buildings in situ. This use case requires advances regarding existing geovisualization methods. We highlight the need to adapt and extend existing 3D geovisualization pipelines, in order to adjust the specific requirements for AR/MR applications, in particular for data rendering and interaction. In order to reach this goal, we focus on and implement four elementary in situ and ex situ AR/MR experiments: each type of these AR/MR experiments helps to consider and specify a specific subproblem, i.e. scale modification, pose estimation, matching between scene and urban project realism, and the mix of real and virtual elements through portals, while proposing occlusion handling, rendering and interaction techniques to solve them.</p>

Tsunami maps provide critical information about tsunami hazards, potential inundation areas, and safe evacuation routes, yet little research has addressed how different user groups perceive and interpret these maps. Using a questionnaire distributed to 181 participants (24 experts—EXs and 157 general users—GUs) and the chi-square (χ2) test, this research explored their understanding and perception of map elements, symbology, probabilistic data, and uncertainty communication. The results show that while both groups generally understand the maps, significant differences exist in their perception of essential map elements, such as evacuation routes, safe zones, and technical data. On average, EXs identified 7.38 elements that evacuation maps should contain, consistently emphasizing the need for more detailed information, whereas GUs preferred simplicity, selecting an average of 5.11 elements. These results highlight the need to balance detail and clarity in map design to serve both user groups effectively. Notably, the results suggest that at least 33% of EXs and 47% of GUs did not clearly distinguish between tsunami hazard and evacuation maps, highlighting the need for clearer map design and terminology. The study also revealed challenges in communicating probabilistic data and uncertainty to non-experts, suggesting the need for improved methods to present this information effectively.
