ABSTRACT

With the rapid development and expansion of urbanization, the use of traditional two-dimensional GIS data technology, drawing design and other urban planning can not meet the requirements of urban design and planning. Virtual reality technology is a kind of computer technology which can create and experience virtual world. Using this technology, we can provide better perceptual knowledge for urban planning and design. Innovating the concept of planning, developing and utilizing virtual reality technology will play a great role in promoting China's economic construction and cultural development. The three-dimensional modeling technology and virtual reality technology of professional objects realize the automatic three-dimensional modeling of planned and designed objects in the process of two-dimensional design and real-time virtual rendering of three-dimensional design scenes. Building a realistic 3D environment with high-performance computers allows the experiencer to immerse themselves in the virtual world and interact with the object in different ways in the virtual environment. The key technologies and current problems of web-based multi-user, roaming and visual 3D virtual cities are pointed out, and the application trends of virtual reality technology in urban planning and design are pointed out.
