Environmental Visualization: Applications to Site Characterization, Remedial Programs, and Litigation Support
Abstract
This paper introduces the application of the visualization technology in the USA environmental consulting industry for site characterization, remedial programs, and litigation support. As a tool visualization allows environmental data that is three-dimensional and transient in nature to be accurately documented, efficiently represented, and ef- fectively communicated to both professionals and the general public. Maximized understanding through enhanced visual perception increases the chance of success in handling complex environmental problems. The key functions, accessibility, and general areas of application of the visualization technology are described and demonstrated with case studies.
