GEOVISUALIZATION OF BORONGAJ CAMPUS IN MOBILE AUGMENTED REALITY
Abstract
This paper explores the application of augmented reality (AR) in spatial data and 3D model visualization, particularly in the context of smart cities and campuses. The term "smart city" refers to the concept of urban planning that optimizes city space by applying digital technologies to improve the quality of life. Smart cities include innovative solutions in traffic, urban planning, energy, communications and digital management of the city and buildings to provide efficient and sustainable development. We developed a mobile AR application that integrates the 3D model of the Borongaj Campus, allowing users to visualize and interact with the model through the use of markers. The application provides an interactive environment where users can engage with the spatial data, enhancing their understanding of the campus layout and structure. Visualizing the 3D model in AR creates a dynamic and immersive experience, contributing to the growing adoption of AR in geovisualization of urban landscapes. The paper also discusses the technical aspects of integrating AR with spatial data, highlighting the challenges and solutions involved in the process. In conclusion, we evaluate the advantages and limitations of the created model, the software tools used, and mobile AR as a medium for visualizing spatial data, providing insights into the potential of this technology for future applications in smart campuses and cities.
