Abstract:
According to the great urban progress in the country and permanent renewal of buildings in line with modern developments an update of 3D building infrastructures becomes a necessity. Especially universities, hospitals and airports buildings are of main concern, which are changing continuously as well as offices and halls according to the requirements of the country and by adding new buildings. Passengers are suffering for knowing places of offices, halls and how to reach it, especially the new passengers.They are wasting their time in asking a way to reach a particular place inside the airport - this could have a negative effect on the traveling time or the completion of the registration procedure on time. Therefore, any plan and project to assist the airport administration to develop the airport and the provision of passenger’s. Starting off from that point, different ideas and techniques grew up to make the geographic orientation easier for Passenger and guiding them to reach a particular place in due time. For this reason, the need of applying three-dimensional visualizations with texture mapping is the true simulation of reality- this is called Virtual Reality Model (VRM). On the other hand, this thesis aims to take advantages of GIS environment to offer a flexible interactive system for providing the best visual interpretation, planning and decision making processes for Khartoum International Airport.
