Three-dimensional modeling of geological bodies is a useful tool for multiple applications. Such tasks are usually accomplished starting from field-collected data, which typically suffer from intrinsic limitations such as accessibility constraints and punctuality of data collected. In this work, we explore the reliability of photo-geological analyses starting from aerial photo-interpretation in providing data useful to build up 3D geological models, and validate them using exploration wells data in a lignite rich area in Umbria, central Italy. The procedure that produces 3D models from photo-geological data is a three-step open source GIS procedure developed using python in GRASS GIS environment and GNU-Linux OS. We maintain that this procedure can have potential broad applications in Earth Sciences, including geological and structural analyses, up to the preliminary evaluation of potential reservoirs.

This article provides a detailed account of the process of scanning, post-processing and further manipulation of three-dimensional models obtained with structured light scanners. Purpose. The purpose of the study is determined by the need for national archaeologists to learn the methods of three-dimensional modeling for the implementation of scientific research corresponding to international standards. Unfortunately, this direction in national archaeology began to develop in a relatively recent time and there is a lag in the application of three-dimensional modeling of national archaeology compared to the world level. Results. Any archaeological, experimental or ethnographic artifact can be used for three-dimensional scanning. To perform post-processing of three-dimensional models it is necessary to carry out primary scanning of an artifact by one of the existing algorithms. The algorithm for creating models, their positioning, simplification, saving in various formats and export is described. The main sequence of 3D models post-processing includes: processing of groups of scanned projections (their cleaning and alignment), creation of artifact model and processing/rectification of the resulting model using special software. Conclusion. As a result of correct implementation of the algorithm, the researcher receives a scaled model completely corresponding to the original artifact. Obtaining a scalable, texture-free three-dimensional model of the artifact, which fully corresponds to the original and exceeds a photograph in the quality of detail transfer, allows a scientist to conduct precise metric measurements and any procedures of non-invasive manipulation of the models. The ability to access a database of three-dimensional models of archaeological collections greatly simplifies the work of archaeologists, especially in situations when country borders are closed.

Point Cloud Model

This paper provides a scheme to construct three dimensional (3D) model fast using laser scanning data. In the approach, firstly, laser point cloud are scanned from different scan positions and the point cloud coming from neighbor scan stations are spliced automatically to combine a uniform point cloud model, and then feature lines are extracted through the point cloud, and the framework of the building are extracted to generate 3D models. At last, a conclusion can be drawn that 3D visualization model can be generated quickly using 3D laser scanning technology. The experiment result shows that it will bring the application model and technical advantage which traditional mapping way can not have.

3D (three-dimensional) laser scanning can be used to collect spatial location of points rapidly and abundantly, and obtain three-dimensional coordinates of the target surface, which provides new technical means for the rapid creation of three-dimensional image model of the object. A three-dimensional modeling study on spatial object was carried out using the spatial data captured via ground-based 3D laser scanner in the Hui-Quan substation. The experiment result shows that rapid 3D visualization modeling on buildings can be achieved via the methods and procedures mentioned above. It has solved that the traditional equipment and the measuring technique is insufficiency in the special domain. It will bring the application mode and technical advantage, which tradition mapping way can not have. A platform for three-dimensional model of the substation can be achieved for the resources, landscape, security, environmental management and other social resources of digital, networked and dynamic visualization.By taking WuXi Hui-Quan Substation as the research object, building 3D models by Three-dimensional laser scanning technology and embedding 3D-GIS, Meanwhile, combining existing 2D-geographical spatial data, data preparation, construction of 3D-model, 3D-visualization, space inquiry and analysis, information management are given systematic analysis and research. In the end, in the programming environment of C#2.0, Skyline software is employed with its open Application Programmed Interface (API), which constructs 3D-scenes and 3D-terrain models of WuXi Hui-Quan Substation and comes to the realization of 3D-visualization, property inquiry and edit of Attribute data.

This article highlights the issues of creating 3D models of urban systems using an agent-based approach according to the implementation of the concept of a "smart city" and building a digital ecosystem for "smart" city management. The issues of creating digital models of cities used as a virtual environment for agent-based models of urban systems are overviewed. The main approaches to the creation of 3D agent-based models (with the functions of three-dimensional data analysis) to simulate various aspects of urban processes are listed. Conclusions about the reasons for the existing lack of attention of researchers to the issues of 3D visualization of agent-based models are presented.

The article studies historical appearance of Russian servicemen of the Far East in the 17th century as well as their traditional opponents – soldiers of the eight-banner army of Qing China. The study sets a goal to practically model and print 3D models of the people understudy. To form basic sketches of the models the authors use historical images as well as modern reconstructions of uniforms and weapons. Computer modeling was carried out using open software. The approach is to develop a utilitarian technique for high-quality modeling of three-dimensional models of historical characters without professional art education. As a result, the authors have got unique three-dimensional models made according to a single algorithm. The use of three-dimensional modeling technologies provides for a fairly simple creation of both a character model itself and his uniform and weapons. Also, three-dimensional modeling allows one to create copies of individual objects thus forming a library that can significantly reduce the time spent on creating similar models. 3D printing technologies make it easy to replicate physical copies of a 3D model which in this case makes it possible to fulfill orders for small-scale production of souvenirs. The models can be applied in industrial production such as casting and milling.
