A comparison between four-tier framework and three-tier framework for online applications of 3D GIS visualization

Online application of 3D visualization for GIS (Geographic Information System) data is of interest to not only professionals such as cartographers, geographers, geologists and psychologists but also popular among the ordinary people. The system’s conventional design is generated from client/server b...

The system’s conventional design is generated from client/server based architecture. This architecture is the main platform for designing the online system architecture, which works based on the distributing concept which is “tier”. The tier is required to separate the works/tasks between the system architecture.

This framework consist of four-tier architecture, which is divided into client tier, logic tier, visualization process tier, and database tier.
