city-roads is a data visualization and mapping project that renders street networks of cities as vector paths, offering an interactive, zoomable experience that highlights how cities are stitched together by their road infrastructure. It typically fetches open map data (such as from OpenStreetMap) and then processes that data into geometry suited for rendering in the browser, allowing users to explore intricate road layouts at various scales. The visual style often abstracts away labels and extraneous map features to focus purely on the road network, giving a unique, aesthetic view of urban form and connectivity. ...

...The Algorithm at the heart of it features my first and second theorem abut polygonal surface approximation. It took something like 2 years to develop it. It's technically a view-dependent, continuous dynamic level-of-detail rendering algorithm. Main features are simplicity and documentation. Does easily a 4k x 4k terrain, but also much more.

The Wildfire Management Tool (WMT) predicts the potential fire behavior of a wildland fire. WMT incorporates a 3D terrain viewer, the tenets of the Campbell Prediction System (CPS) and the Rothermel fire spread equations to depict fire behavior. WMT is used to adjust tactics & strategies to ensure the safety of firefighters and the effective use of firefighting resources. Requires Java 8 (included) - http://www.java.com/download
