Environment
• Ecole Centrale Nantes– Computer Science Dept
• CERMA lab– Architectural and urban ambiances– interdisciplinary research (thermics, acoustics, architecture,
CS…)• IRSTV : Research Federation on Sciences and
Techniques of the city– 13 partners– all research topics related to urban management and
sustainable development
• Talk is only focused on VR/AR related aspects

CERMA Team
• 19 professors and researchers• 11 PhD students• 5 administrative and technical staff
Context: urban data
• Sustainable development and urban planning demand new complex spatial queries
– what are the walls that have less than 2hrs sunlight in summer and more than 6 in winter?
• Data is 3D (+ time) but queries also are– Heterogeneity (nature, scale, source)
• Issues– Modeling, acquisition, update, quality– data query (definition and execution)– data and results visualization
– Towards on site GIS (uses, AR)

CS Research themes
• Data models – discrete vs. continuous models– multi-scale and multi-representation– Geo-referencing of data
• Data acquisition - update– image georeferencing and knowledge extraction– computer vision
• Representation – Virtual Reality – mobile GIS - Augmented reality– Computer graphics (inverse modeling & simulation)
• GIS– Interoperability, SDI, middleware, GIS usage
Applications: information retrieval and decision-making tools
• Outdoor augmented reality– georeferencing and local registration
• mobile GIS– visualization (light clients)– data acquisition and updating
the « 3D GIS - pictures » loop

Maps and pictures are both projections of the same environment. There exists an homography…

Visualization topics and projects• Stereoscopic visualization confort enhancement (with
ENSMP-CAOR)• VR for ambiences analysis and communication• VR for studying landscape impacts of wind farms
– visual + aural• Generation of 3D urban models• NPR for urban data visualization• Urban indicators
– Query building– Thematic mapping (3D+t) : SLD extension
