A "gumbo" of tools and concepts supporting rich client applications with 2D/3D user interfaces. Expands on the code from the book "3D User Interfaces with Java 3D", and includes a generous contribution of RCP code from Meyer Sound. Recent work includes a Norden bombsight simulator, with terrain rendering based on NASA's WorldWind SDK. For this effort YourKit has generously made available its full-featured Java Profiler (https://www.yourkit.com/java/profiler/index.jsp), which has proved...

WorldWind Java is an open-source virtual globe SDK developed by NASA that allows developers to embed a 3D Earth visualization into Java applications. It renders detailed global terrain and satellite imagery, and supports real-time geographic data overlays, making it ideal for applications in geospatial analysis, education, simulation, and scientific visualization. With its flexible API and plugin system, WorldWind Java is a powerful platform for building interactive geospatial applications that need accurate globe rendering and data integration.

FarPlaneTwo is an experimental open-source Minecraft mod that introduces a Level-of-Detail (LoD) terrain rendering system designed to dramatically extend how far players can visually see across the game world. Instead of rendering distant terrain using the same detailed chunk system as nearby areas, the mod generates simplified representations of terrain that require far fewer resources to display. This approach allows players to view landscapes at extremely large distances while maintaining...

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

Use map data to plan hikes or explore new areas. Includes 3D maps of terrain rendered in real-time; trace trails across the terrain and get height verses distance profiles; tile together adjacent maps to create seamless map areas. Reads USGS SDTS files.

A C/S system to visualize very large terrains from a 1st-person view. The terrain model is stored in multiple resolutions depending on the distance of the viewer. This produces fast high quality images from all distances.

VisTer is system for terrain and landscapes visualization. It is graphical scene editor with built-in java3d renderer, which may be used in your java3d application. VisTer is based on plug-in system, so you can easily develope and test our own algorithms
