Web environments for teaching topographic surfaces in augmented reality and virtual reality
Entrada monumental da Gruta do Lago Azul, ricamente ornamentada por estalactites e estalagmites, situada no município de Bonito, a E da Serra da Bodoquena e a sudoeste do município de Miranda. A região serrana foi edificada em unidades carbonáticas dos grupos Cuiabá e Corumbá, de idade Neoproterozoica. Fotografia: Adriano Gambarini.

Abstract

This paper shows the use of web resources for the creation of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) environments to teaching of topographic surface concepts. Surface virtual mockups built with Sketchup software features include graphical representations of level contours, plan sections, and embankment slopes. The terrains textures used are satellite photos available by the Digital Globe platform and contribute to improve the visualization of studied concepts. Developed environments enable students to view AR surfaces through their webcam devices, such as smartphones, tablets, or notebooks, from a variety of points of view. Each topographic surface has a link to its respective representation in VR, which allows its manipulation and detailed study of each concept. The environments presented in this work can be used in disciplines of Topography, Geography and Descriptive Geometry.
