Foil 9 Current Status of VRMLViewer

From Terrain Rendering and GIS using Java and VRML Rome Lab Quarterly Review for CIV -- June 28 96. by Paul Coddington, Alvin Leung, Krysztof Walczak, Byeongsoeb Ki *
1 Prototype is operational with some simple terrain and GIS data; overlays can be added, such as clouds, snow, buildings, hyperlinked objects
2 More tuning can be done, but the current performance is good for VMRL data accessed locally from disk, but too slow over a network (data format is uncompressed ASCII)
3 VRML is not flexible enough to add extra capabilities - it is not a programming language
