3D visualization - ArcScene and ArcGlobe

ArcGIS 3D Analyst provides extensive tools to visualize geographic vector or raster data in three dimensions.

You can easily drape your data over the terrain; use attributes, such as elevation, to display the data at a preset height; or use attributes to extrude the data.

In addition, users can take advantage of ArcScene and ArcGlobe, two specialized 3D viewing applications that are part of ArcGIS 3D Analyst. Both ArcScene and ArcGlobe allow users to effectively manage their 3D GIS data, conduct 3D analysis, edit 3D features, create layers within 3D viewing properties, as well as create 3D features from existing two-dimensional data.

With ArcGlobe users can also place spatially referenced data on a 3D globe surface. Very large amounts of data (terabytes) can easily be manipulated and visualized. ArcGlobe allows users to place their map in the context of a real-world global-to-local view.

ArcGIS 3D Analyst visualization tools include the ability to:

View data from a global to local perspective
Visualize extremely large data sets (terabytes)
Drape two-dimensional data on a surface or globe
Extrude data into walls and lines in your 3D objects
