Using 3D functionality available in current web-browsers to create and visualize geological models.
Abstract
This thesis investigates the possibility of using modern web technologies to develop accessible applications for interactive covisualization of geological data such as topography, seismic slices and measurements from wells. To avoid low-level development we specifically investigate X3DOM, which hides the details of graphics rendering in a high-level, declarative XML-like syntax. The thesis shows how to successfully implement a geoscientific application using X3DOM and the Angular web application framework.
