Description
Summary:The aim of this paper is to discuss on the issues related to the use of a new proposed four tier framework for online application of 3D visualization. This research problem is undertaken as the current framework has issues of more processing power is needed for the middle tier. In our novel approach, we designed a framework based on the server/client architecture which distributes the task into the tiers concept to overcome the problem. It is being formalized into four tiers framework by advancing one more tier into the existing three tiers framework for handling the visualization process. The four tiers framework is divided into the client, logic, visualization process, and database tiers respectively. The interaction between each of these tiers is described in detail and the functions of each tier are also extensively described. As based on these interactions, the processing power is reduced by introducing new tier for handling the visualization process. The performance of the system in online environment also is expecting to increase. The proposed framework has high potential to be formalized into online applications of 3D visualization such as visualization of terrain for agricultural applications, determination of interesting tourism spots, visualization of hazardous terrain and a host of other applications.
