Visual Analytics for Modelling and Simulation

DSS

Decision support systems for tunnel construction. The aim of this project is to investigate novel methods of 3D viewing technologies for tunnel design and tunnelling.

3D viewing technologies for tunnel design and construction.

Visualisierung eines Tunnels während seiner Planung.

3D and visualization technologies are always used in tunnel design and construction.

This multi-firm project addresses requirements of several civil engineering companies. The objectives are:

Specification, design and development of new forms of combined, integrated and interactive 3d-visualizations for tunnel data. Focus will be on tunneling machines and the (partly real-time) machine data they produce.
Further development, implementation and test of already existing software systems (3d viewer applications) supporting decisions in tunneling projects by displaying the above mentioned new 3d-visualizations for tunneling machines.
Acquisition of data stemming from real tunnel projects for testing the viewer application.
Further integration of laser scan data and photogrammetric reconstruction data resulting from various other projects.

Digital representations of the real world and digital twins are becoming increasingly important for planning, situation assessment and decision-making.

Visualization and visual analysis of high-resolution surface reconstructions find a wide range of applications, from tunnel monitoring and archaeological excavations to the change management of cultural heritage buildings.

In order to preserve the architectural heritage, we use methods of photogrammetry, thermography, photometry as well as laser scans to carry out inventories, recognition and documentation of changes in protected buildings.

GEARViewer

The GEARViewer is the result of many years of research on the visualization of complex infrastructure projects. GEARViewer is a tool that allows to interactively explore extensive geographical areas and to investigate the effects of large-scale infrastructure buildings on urban and rural environments.
