The 3D Geo Google Earth solutions provide professionals in the fields of business, science, and administration with an effective means of presenting and distributing their geoinformation via the Google Earth medium. 

3D Geo Creator for Google Earth

The 3D Geo Creator for Google Earth processes, transforms, and converts your geodata systematically and automatically into the Google Earth format KMZ.  Thanks to the extensive configuration options, you can put together and arrange your geodata to meet the individual needs of your target user group.   The created KMZ-data can be directly delivered to the user or be put onto one's own web-server.  By taking advantage of the Google Earth web-streaming function, it is possible to make available and visualize even very large volumes of data on demand.    The data remains in the sovereign possession of the data provider and does not have to be put under control of Google Earth.  Maximum data security is maintained through digital rights and modern encrypting mechanisms, which prevent any reconstruction of the original data.

With the 3D Geo Creator for Google Earth you have various options to illustrate your geo-data in Google Earth:

• 3D- City model
  • input-data: polygon-based vector data
  • realistic photographic illustration with facades and roof textures
  • multi-colored schematic illustration for visualizing various features of buildings such as rental units and rent prices
  • possibility to illustrate entire cities
• 3D-models
  • input-data: CAD-models (e.g., 3ds)
  • detailed illustration of buildings and structures
• Points-of-Interest (Placemarks)
  • input-data: point-based vector data
  • configuration options to illustrate and give additional information about  attributes and features
• Lines
  • input-data: lined-based vector data
  • illustration as 2D or 3D lines
• Polygons
  • input-data: polygon-based vector data
  • illustration as  2D polygon on area surfaces or extruded 3D polygon
• Vegetation Model
  • input-data:  point-based vector data
  • positioning of texturized building models

The conversion process includes the transformation of the original data into the coordinate system used by Google Earth, geometrical conversion, and level-of-detail processing.  In order to guarantee optimal illustration quality, additional geometric and texture optimization is carried out.  The integration of data content into Google Earth's familiar user interface makes using and navigating within the program easier for customers.    

Areas of Application:

• geo-portals  for public information
• geo-visualization for internet portal systems, e.g., for real estate, the Yellow Pages etc.
• public participation in city development
• event-related presentation of geoinformation
• live-tracking of geo-referenced objects for logistics, transportation, traffic and safety
• data-mining for enterprise systems
• data-mining for data warehouse systems
