Reading notes:
- Introduction to 3D mapping within GIS through web scenes, emphasizing the importance of scene layers like photorealistic and cartographic types.
- In-depth exploration of various scene layers such as 3D object scene layers, building scene layers, integrated mesh scene layers, point cloud scene layers, point scene layers, and voxel scene layers.
- Broader applications of 3D GIS are explored, spanning urban planning, architecture, engineering, construction (AEC), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), extended reality (XR), and the emerging metaverse concept.
- Significance of indoor 3D GIS highlighted, with ArcGIS Indoors serving as a solution for smart building management, providing wayfinding for people, assets, and specific rooms.
In my application, I would use spatial analysis to identify economic disparities across different regions within a state based on its gdp data. Using techniques such as integrated mesh scenes to pinpoint areas with economic growth or those with economic challenges.
