Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the Digital Earth concept and scale issues regarding landscape planning visualisation, and we present the interactive visualisation system Biosphere3D. The visualisation system supports multiple scales on a virtual globe, and is focussing on real-time rendering of vegetation, similar to the predecessor LennĂ©3D-Player. In this paper we describe the visualisation system from a user’s perspective. We provide detailed information about the available import and export data formats, the rendering capabilities and the required hardware. Additionally we will give a quick overview over the interfaces that allow the creation of custom software modules and possible applications.
