WebVRGIS: WebGIS Based Interactive Online 3D Virtual Community

In this paper we present a WebVRGIS based Interactive On line 3D Virtual Community which is achieved based on WebGIS technology and web VR technology. It is Multi-Dimensional(MD) web geographic information system (WebGIS) based 3D interactive on line virtual community which is a virtual real-time 3D communication systems and web systems development platform. It is capable of running on a variety of browsers. In this work, four key issues are studied: (1) Multi-source MD geographical data fusion of the WebGIS, (2) scene combination with 3D avatar, (3) massive data network dispatch, and (4) multi-user avatar real-time interactive. Our system is divided into three modules: data preprocessing, background management and front end user interaction. The core of the front interaction module is packaged in the MD map expression engine 3GWebMapper and the free plug-in network 3D rendering engine WebFlashVR. We have evaluated the robustness of our system on three campus of Ocean University of China(OUC) as a testing base. The results shows high efficiency, easy to use and robustness of our system.
