When using IFC data consisting of STEP schema based on the EXPRESS language, it is not easy for collaborating project stakeholders to share BIM modeling shape information. The IFC viewer application must be installed on the desktop PC to review the BIM modeling shape information defined within the IFC, because the IFC viewer application not only parse STEP structure information model but also process the 3D feature construction for a 3D visualization. Therefore, we propose a lightweight data structure design for web visualization by parsing IFC data and constructing 3D modeling data. Our experimental results show the weight reduction of IFC data is about 40% of original file size and the web visualization is able to see the same quality with all web browsers which support WebGL on PCs and smartphones. If applied research is conducted about the web visualization based on IFC data of the last construction phase, it could be utilized in various fields ranging from the facility maintenance to indoor location-based services.

The dynamic design and evaluation of mechanisms need to be performed in a collaboration or concurrent system in order to shorten the development period of the product. A web-based system is the most suitable concurrent system to promote effective collaboration. In order to develop such a web-based system, Java Applet, which is not restrained by a computer's H/W and S/W, is widely used. This paper introduces a web-based 3D animation system for visualizing the motions of mechanisms. This web-based 3D animation system uses a JAVA Applet program method, which can be operated in a web-browser, and the Open Inventor for Java, which supports 3D graphics. It does not only allows the user to verify dynamic simulation results and design variables through the web, but it also has the advantage of supporting collaboration among a number of users through simultaneous connections.

According to the advancement of web related technologies, many works on robots using these technologies, called web-based robots enables sharing of expensive equipments as well as control of remote robots. But none of the existing methods about web-based robots in-clude robot simulators in their web browser, which transfer appropriate information of a remote place to the local users. In this paper, a web-based robot simulator is proposed and developed to control a remote robot by using the web. The proposed simulator can transfer the 3D information about the remote robot to the local users by using 3D graphics, which has not been previously developed. Also, it sends the camera image of a remote place to the local users so that the users can use this camera image as well as 3D information in order to control the remote robot.

This paper describes the development of 3-D web graphic library for dynamic web graphic design. The 3-D web graphic library developed in this per supports creation of 3-D objects like cube and sphere objects, elimination of hidden line and surface, and the shading of diffuse and specular reflections. It provides, in drawing, perspective projection of an object depth first sort of multiple objects, and wire frame and solid models. It also supports texture mapping function for realistic and dynamic web application in application software. Each created 3-D object gives functions for the scaling, translation, and rotation of itself. It can be used for the development of dynamic web application software and the advertisement of information for business and tourism as a 3-D web graphic library engine. It is written in 'Java' language and runs on web browsers with Java virtual machine without any dependancy of client computer system.

Recently, the utilization of geospatial open platforms has been constantly increased and the interest in 3D geospatial data such as terrain, building and shopping mall has been increased significantly. In particular, rather than simplified 3D geospatial data, interest in high-precision 3D geospatial data which similarly represents the real world objects has increased significantly. In order to satisfy the demand for such the high-precision 3D geospatial data, various kinds of 3D geospatial open platforms has been developed and has provided services on the web. However, most of the 3D geospatial open platforms have been used plug-in module in order to ensure a fast 3D rendering performance on the web, despite the many problems such as difficulty of the installation, no supporting of cross browser/operating system and security issues. In addition, recently, the existing 3D geospatial open platforms based on plug-in module are facing a serious problem, by declaring the NPAPI service interruption in Chrome and Firefox browsers. In this study, we presents the design and implementation of a new 3D geospatial open platform based on HTML5/WebGL technology without the use of plug-ins. Such the new 3D geospatial open platform based on HTML5/WebGL may support cross browsers such as IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and cross OS platforms such as Windows, Linux, Mac and mobile OS platforms.

Recently, as advancing the technologies for Web 3D and Virtual Reality, the studies have been progressed actively to provide three dimensional information on the web. Especially, the various applications for providing urban information in 3D space have been developed using EAI(External Authoring Interface) that serves an interface between VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language), standard language for embodying virtual reality, and JAVA applet in HTML. In this study, as constructing 3D virtual city information using Digital Map, IKONOS satellite image, VRML and so on, we could provide users which need several information with building location and various urban living information. In addition, applying 3D skills such as texturing, panorama and navigation, users were enabled to perform various route searching and scenery analysis. Finally, to serve urban living information in real time, we designed to search information faster through interfacing database and to update data using ASP(Active Server Page) on web.

At the stage of content convergence into cell phone, technologies for geo-spatial information sharing and searching are being developed. Currently, 2D portable navigation map for mobile navigation is provided by communication companies, but geobrowers for 3D geo-information in cell phone are under developing. In this study, 3D feature transformation among X3D-M3G-KML, on mobile and web environments, is dealt with as the first stage for the further mobile 3D web application. As well, it is possible to real-time interoperable 3D geo-information exchange issues within both environments.

The public and civilian demands regarding 3D geo-spatial information processing on mobile device including smartphone are increasing. But there are few actual implementations or application cases. This work is to present some results by a prototype implementation of 3D terrain information visualization function with satellite image and DEM using HTML5 WebGL, which is a web-based graphic library under the standardization process. This is a useful standard for cross-platform operation for 3D graphic rendering without other plug-in modules. As the results, in the different types of operating system or browser in a personal computer or a smartphone, it shows same rendering results, as long as they support HTML5 WebGL. As well;geo-metadata search and identification functions for data sets for 3D terrain visualization process are added in this implementation for the practical aspect.
