3D-in-2D Planar View Display

Overview

The "3D-in-2D Planar View Display" project proposed a 3-year programme to develop a visualisation system for air traffic management in which a localised 3D perspective view of the airspace can be displayed on demand, integrated within the context of a 2D planar ATC radar display.

It was proposed to:
  • develop a localised dynamic 3D-in-2D form visualisation to provide support for spatial awareness of tactical air traffic control situations;
  • integrate the 3D visualisation into a 2D plan view radar display, and not as a separate display or window, eliminating the need to switch views; and
  • incorporate temporal dimension design in the localised 3D representation to support temporal reasoning.

Start date and duration

This project started in January, 2007, and finished in December, 2009.

Partners/Contractors

Our partners/contractors were:
  • Middlesex University (UK), the main contractor; and
  • Space Applications Services (Belgium), a sub-contractor.
