Abstract Rear-Projecting Virtual Data onto Physical Terrain: An Exercise in Two Senses Being Better Than One
This paper describes a project that combined physical model fabrication and virtual computer-based data display to create a unique visualization presentation. USGS terrain information on Prince of Wales Island, Alaska was used to create a physical prototype in SDSC’s TeleManufacturing Facility. This...
