Abstract

This paper presents a three-dimensional earth representation system for visualization of Taiwan Ocean data, based on the mixed MySQL and HBase databases. The Client-Server architecture is used to provide Web GIS services in this system. In addition, the WebGIS and WebGL are adopted to enhance 3D visualization of the ocean data. In order to achieve better data-access performance, the architecture of HBase combined with MySQL is used to accommodate different data types and sizes in the back end of system. Finally, we implement the information of sea-going onboard survey, including concentrations of chlorophyll a salinity and temperature, shore-based surface current data and PM2.5 data, onto the 3D-GIS display platform for environmental decision making in the future.
