A Quaternion-Based Piecewise 3D Modeling Method for Indoor Path Networks
Generating 3D path models (with textures) from indoor paths is a good way to improve the visualization performance of 3D indoor path analysis. In this paper, a quaternion-based piecewise 3D modeling method is proposed to automatically generate highly ...

Defining a Digital Earth System [PDF]
AbstractIn a 1998 speech before the California Science Center in Los Angeles, then US Vice‐President Al Gore called for a global undertaking to build a multi‐faceted computing system for education and research, which he termed “Digital Earth.” The vision was that of a system providing access to what is known about the planet and its inhabitants ...

The concept of Digital Earth as a digital replica of the planet has its roots in science fiction, in the writings of environmental visionaries, and in a speech prepared for delivery by Vice President Gore in 1998. Five use cases are identified that together comprise the vision of Digital Earth: a geoportal, a visualization service, a platform for ...

Extraction of Glacial Lake Outlines in Tibet Plateau Using Landsat 8 Imagery and Google Earth Engine
Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are among the most serious natural hazards in high mountain regions in the last several decades. The recent global warming has caused dramatic glacial lake changes and increased potential GLOF risk, particularly in ...
