32. Let’s look into it technically

33. mago3D integrates AEC(Architecture, Engineering, Construction) and 3D GIS
in web browser using Cesium or Web World Wind.
To achieve this goal we created a 3D data format named F4D.
Objectives of F4D are:
1- Reduce size of data for network traffic.
2- Create LOD (Level Of Detail) on service data.
3- Make visibility indices for occlusion culling.
4- Divide and group data into spatial octree.
TODAY

34. 1- How to reduce size of data
1 model & multi-instance
→ During processing, detection for geometrical congruence over raw data is carried out.
→ As result, 1 model and transformation matrices for each instance are built up for each congruence case.
With 4 geometric meshes - 4 models 23 objects are created. - 23 instances

35. 2- How to make LOD
We want to make simplified data of
Eiffel Tower.

36. First, divide the Bounding Box into
enough small cubes for each LOD

37. Third, merge
collected cubes
as much as possible
Second, collect
cubes which
intersects with
original data

38. Last, apply newly created textures
on result geometries

39. Creation of textures for rougher LODs from original textures
taking captures from original texture rendering
rougher LOD meshes with created texture
created texture

40. Example of mapping original and created textures

41. 3- How to make visibility indices for occlusion culling(OC)
First, enclose the 3d model with
an octree of enough size and depth
※ Size affects to OC range
※ Depth affects to visibility
index data size

42. 360°
Second,
detect IDs of all visible objects
from each leaf octree cell
by rendering with color coding

43. Example of detection for all visible objects on each leaf octree cell

44. Example of detection for all visible objects on each leaf octree cell

45. Assign target meshes into
each spatially divided octree
How we use created visibility indices for occlusion culling??

46. Perform frustum culling on
spatially divided octree
before occlusion culling
octree for visibility indexing
(for occlusion culling)
octree for spatial division
(for frustum culling)

47. survived spatial octree
from frustum culling

48. IDs of survived objects from frustum culling
are obtained .

49. At last, intersection between
visibility indices and object IDs
makes finally visible objects.

50. How occlusion culling and frustum culling are performed in mago3d.
