K2Vi V3 supports scripting and 'Immersive Video' hyperlinks.

Scripting allows you to combine viewpoints, flightpaths and scenarios into a timed-based script.

Immersive technology is the new benchmark in visualisation. Using this technology, virtual tours can be readily created from 360 degree imagery. In V3 you can click on a 3D model which has an associated 'Immersive Video'. The video will open up in an external window and will start to play at the same geographic location as the 3D model in V3. When the video is playing, the location of the 3D model in V3 is automatically updated.

K2Vi V3 and K2Vi Professional support loading and fast real-time rendering of Pictometry 3D City models.

Pictometry 3D City Models are large detailed 3D City Models. Recently we installed our K2Vi software plus the 3D city model of Hobart for the Hobart City Council in Tasmania, Australia. Next month we'll do a similar installation for Geelong City Council in Melbourne, Australia.

Data Interface Technologies Ltd is proud to announce the release of K2Vi  V3 Viewer  

V3 is a fast, robust, cross platform 3DGIS&VR engine that can run on low- end PCs as well as high-end multi pipe reality centers.

Some of the new features in V3 are:

Globe display

K2Vi has gone global. Our new K2Vi Viewer V3 supports the display of GIS and 3D CAD data on a 3D globe. All your current K2Vi projects can be loaded on to the globe and are automatically reprojected to WGS84 world coordinates.

The V3 Viewer supports all functionality that was available in K2Vi Lite such as:
  • themes on/off
  • flight paths
  • viewpoints
  • measure mode
  • animation of objects
In addition, there are 2 new navigation modes called terrain and orbit which allow for easy navigation around the globe.

Globe generation

The new V3 globe is a paged terrain/image database which basically means you can zoom right in to the highest level of detail available for both terrain and draped imagery. The globe is pre-compiled and is loaded as extra parameter in V3 in addition to the K2Vi27 kvp project file.

DIT can provide customised globes at any resolution.

In co-operation with GeographX we supply V3 globes with New Zealand at 20m terrain resolution and 7m image resolution.

In addition we can integrate your  high resolution terrain and imagery in the V3 globe as well.
Future developments

Some of the planned new features are:
  • volumetric, animated clouds
  • Sun, moon and stars
  • (ground) fog
  • improving rendering performance using OpenGL shaders
  • time-based animation of objects
  • character animation
  • enhanced realism
  • automatic generation of GIS/CAD objects in the 3D world based on GIS information
