Abstract

Maritime information is very important to ensure traffic safety on the sea. In recent years the maritime information browsing and service system is widely used. However, most of the traditional systems are based on 2D electronic charts and are not satisfied with people's multi-dimension and multi-viewpoint way to observe the world. So it is necessary and urgent to research and develop the maritime information service in 3D virtual environment. Aiming at this, a new idea for maritime information browsing and service based on 3D virtual earth is presented in this paper. Corresponding key technologies including integrated creation of underwater and land terrain, creation of 3D maritime model based on the integration of GIS and CAD, spatial information extraction from nonspatial data, organization and management of terrain data and 3D maritime models, moving object management based on orbit positioning algorithm, 3D visualization of different information are discussed in detail. At last, a system named 3DMBINS is developed and obtained initial application in maritime administration.
