Overview
In the final lesson of this course, we ask you to reflect on the potential of 3D modeling and VR (or AR/ MR) for the geospatial sciences. We have seen in this course that there is a lot of development and advancement in technology taking place that has made 3D modeling more accessible and is pushing virtual reality into the mainstream.
This is not to say that there are no issues left or that there is not a lot of work to be done on all accounts. But, with a consumer market industry behind current developments we are looking into a future of communication, sharing, and understanding environmental information that will be vastly different from our current approaches.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
- Discuss applications of 3D/VR
- Discuss evaluating the added value of immersive VR
- Discuss how spatial sciences will change in the light of VR
