GIScene.js

A 3D WebGIS framework. Based on Three.js. Easy to learn and customize.

This project extends the fantastic capabilities of the 3D JavaScript library three.js by adding GIS concepts like Layers, Controls, Coordinates, Projections and more. If you are familiar with the web mapping library OpenLayers you will find this library easy to use. You can use it for georeferenced 3D data, but it takes a lot of work from you no matter if your models are georeferenced or not.

#Acknowledgements GIScene has been developed by M.Auer during the research project MayaArch3D. The MayaArch3D-SingleObjectViewer was developed using the GIScene.js library. Between 2012 and 2015 the development of GIScene.js and the MayaArch3D project has been funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
