Collaborative Research: ITR: The Geowall - Stereo Visualization for the Earth Sciences

0218918约翰逊计算机辅助赤平投影技术的发展极大地帮助了地球科学结构和过程的解释。我们已经开发并实现了一个负担得起的PC/Linux为基础的立体投影系统（“Geowall”），可以使用的个人研究小组和本科课程。 密歇根大学（University of Michigan）和伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（University of Illinois at货车Keken）之间的信息技术合作研究项目的主要目标是大大提高地球科学应用的内容开发和交付。这将包括为现有的地球科学应用开发转换软件和查看器;实施3D数据交互和操作工具;在地球科学部门测试这些工具;改善研究人员小组之间的协作环境;通过Geowall联盟（geowall.org）进行传播。***

0218918JohnsonDevelopment of computer-aided stereographic projection techniques has greatly aided interpretation of Earth Science structure and processes. We have developed and implemented an affordable PC/Linux based stereo projection system ("the Geowall") that can be used by individual research groups and within the undergraduate curriculum. The main goals of this collaborative Information Technology Research project between the University of Michigan (EAR-0219246; PI: P. van Keken) and the University of Illinois at Chicago are to greatly improve the content development and delivery for Earth Science applications. This will include the development of conversion software and viewers for existing Earth Science applications; implementation of tools for interaction and manipulation of 3D data; testing of these tools in Earth Science departments; improvement of the collaborative environment for work between groups of researchers; and dissemination through the Geowall consortium (geowall.org). ***
