abstract = {This paper proposes a context-preserving 3D  visualization technique for interactive view- and  distance-dependent cutaway visualization that reveals the  subsurface urban infrastructure network. The infrastructure  itself is displayed using the procedural billboarding technique,  and its internals are revealed through a new cutaway algorithm  that operates directly on the procedurally generated structures  in the billboard proxy geometry. Both described cutaway  techniques achieve interactive frame rates for the  infrastructural network of a mid-sized city. Performance  benchmarks and a domain expert evaluation support the potential  usefulness of this technique in general and its particular  utilization for the sewer network visualization.},
