In this paper we develop an indoor location tracking system and its 3D tracking monitoring viewer, viz., 3D Navigation Viewer (3DNV). We focus on the integration of an indoor location tracking system with the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML), to facilitate a representation of the user's spatial information in virtual indoor environments that is synchronized with the physical location environment. The developed indoor location tracking system employs beacons as active transmitters, and a listener as a passive receiver. The distance information calculated from the difference speeds of RF and Ultrasonic signals is exploited, to determine the user's physical location. This is essential in supporting third parties like doctors and caregivers in identifying the activities and status of a particular individual via 3DNV. 3DNV serves as a unified user interface for an indoor location tracking system, showing the viewpoint and position of the target in virtual indoor environments. It was implemented using VRML, to provide an actual real time visualization of the target's spatial information.

In this paper we present 3-D Navigation View, a three-dimensional visualization of indoor environment which serves as an intuitive and unified user interface for our developed indoor location tracking system via Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) in web environment. The extracted user's spatial information from indoor location tracking system was further processed to facilitate the location indication in virtual 3-D indoor environment based on his location in physical world. External Authoring Interface (EAI) provided by VRML enables the integration of interactive 3-D graphics into web and direct communication with the encapsulated Java applet to update position and viewpoint of user periodically in 3-D indoor environment. As any web browser with VRML viewer plug-in is able to run the platform independent 3-D Navigation View, specialized and expensive hardware or software can be disregarded.

IFC 국제표준 규격은 EXPRESS 언어기반의 STEP 스키마 구조로 기술되어 있으므로 BIM 협업에 참여하는 주체자들이 BIM 모델링 형상정보를 공유하는데 접근성이 용이하지 않음을 확인할 수 있었다. IFC 내에 정의된 BIM 모델링 형상정보를 검토하기 위해서는 데스크탑 PC에 IFC 뷰어 어플리케이션을 설치하여 STEP 구조를 파싱하고 3D 가시화를 위한 형상구성 처리를 해야 하기 때문이다. 따라서 IFC 정보모델을 파싱하여 완전한 3D 모델링 형태의 정보구조로 변환하여 web 클라이언트에서 가시화가 용이하도록 경량화 데이터 구조로 설계하였으며, 실험결과 약 40%의 감량효과가 나타났으며, PC에서 스마트폰에 이르기까지 WebGL을 지원하는 모든 web browser에서 동일한 품질의 3D 렌더링 결과를 확인할 수 있었다. 시공 프로세스가 끝난 후 완성된 IFC 데이터를 기반으로 web 표준에 관한 응용연구를 진행한다면 일반 건축물의 유지관리에서 실내공간 위치기반 서비스에 이르는 여러 분야에 활용이 가능할 것이다.
