Is 3D GIS About To Revolutionize Visualization?

Written by Jeff Thurston The devel­op­ment and release of 3D GIS is a major step for­ward into the future. It will undoubt­edly cause a stir, sev­eral peo­ple to scratch their heads and unleash a wave of new think­ing that we have not expe­ri­enced in the geo­com­mu­nity for quite some time. It will cross dis­ci­plines, open doors and stir the pot of con­tented indi­vid­u­als who thought we had gone as far as we could go. Visu­al­iza­tion is poised to skyrocket in terms of activ­ity due to new ways for inter­pret­ing prob­lems, under­stand­ing their nature and rep­re­sent­ing their inter­ac­tions.
