Abstract:
The 3D Visualization of Airport Ground Information System (AGI-VR system) is PC-based and exploits the advent of modern PC-based 3D real-time graphics generation technology. It converts dynamic and complex airport ground information, including aircraft type, airline, arrival/departure time, flight number, source/destination, berthing bay and all kinds of building such as tower, meteorological observatory, runway, light, etc., to real time visual representation to supplement other airport facilities in the real time supervision, management and scheduling of flight vehicles in the airportĄ¯s airside. More than 1 years running in Beijing Capital International Airport (BCIA) proves that applying VR technology into airport ground information management is a more efficient, more effective and more economic (3E) strategy than traditional text-based database query system and should extend to all around airport system as well as ground information.
