Perception-Guided Adaptive Modeling of 3D Virtual Cities Based on Probabilistic Grammars (D01)

• Subject Area: Geodesy, Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing, Geoinformatics, Cartography
• Term: from 2015 to 2019
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 251654672

The goal of the project is to create quantitative methods for the perception-aware representation of 3D virtual cities. We will develop a grammar-based system for the effective visual communication of building-related information via geometric 3D building representations that induce a defined degree of perceptual insight in the observer`s mind. The system will allow us to quantify the perceptual insight and predict the effects of modified system parameters. Moreover, it will be possible to enhance the perceptual insight by specifically changing the geometric representation.
