WiseSphere 3D
A 3D spatial information solution that builds terrain models from large-volume imagery and elevation data, then uses GIS and multimedia content so users can understand terrain and make decisions inside a virtual environment that behaves like the real one.
Why WiseSphere 3D
Standard web delivery, with performance that holds at national scale
No plugin, no ActiveX
Standard web delivery on WebGL and HTML5. Nothing to install on the client, and nothing tied to a single browser or operating system.
Above and below ground in one view
Ground-level buildings and terrain, and underground utilities and structures, are visualised and analysed together rather than in separate systems.
3D Tiles for throughput
Combining many 3D models into a single tile grid and serving those tiles outperforms serving each model individually.
LOD-optimised models
Tile grid size adapts to model density, and each tile holds a consistent payload — so service performance stays stable as scene complexity varies.
Tiles stored in a DBMS
3D tiles are held in a database rather than as loose files, giving both reliability and the access control that public-sector data requires.
Indoor spatial information
Interior space is supported alongside terrain and facilities, so a building can be examined from the city block down to the floor.

Functions
What operators actually do with it
- Visualisation
- Ground-level 3D buildings and underground facilities rendered together, with indoor spatial information supported.
- Attribute-driven geometry
- Underground facilities are drawn volumetrically from their own attributes — pipe diameter and burial depth — rather than as generic symbols.
- Analysis
- Longitudinal and cross-sectional profiles, terrain excavation, and perspective views.
- Standards
- WebGL and HTML5 for rendering; open international standards applied so the solution integrates with the systems you already operate.
- Deployment
- Server plus browser client. No client-side installation, no ActiveX control, no browser lock-in.
