Urban 3D Models: What’s underneath? Handheld Augmented Reality for Subsurface Infrastructure Visualization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Handheld outdoor augmented reality requires georeferenced models of the environment to present world-registered overlays to a mobile user. We have developed a handheld augmented reality setup combining multiple sensors built around an Ultra-Mobile PC. We present an outdoor application visualizing subsurface infrastructure in 3D extracted from geodata sources.

متن کاملHandheld Geospatial Augmented Reality using Urban 3D Models
Handheld outdoor augmented reality requires georeferenced models of the environment to present world-registered overlays to a mobile user. We present a pipeline for managing such models that cover a wide urban area. To this aim, a geospatial database must be created, maintained and delivered to the mobile user.
متن کاملEmploying location-aware handheld augmented reality to assist utilities field personnel
Employing mobile augmented reality (AR) to assist utility field personnel is a novel approach, which has become considerable in recent years with the advent of AR applications running on handheld computing devices. Unlike conventional solutions, AR provides a more intuitive interface to access complex underground utility network data in the field. As a result, common field tasks concerning main...
متن کاملGeospatial Databases and Augmented Reality Visualization for Improving Safety in Urban Excavation Operations
The U.S. has more than 14 million miles of buried pipelines and utilities, many of which are in congested urban environments where several lines share the underground space. Errors in locating excavations for new installation or for repair/rehabilitation of existing utilities can result in significant costs, delays, loss of life, and damage to property (Sterling 2000). There is thus a clear nee...
