Abstract

To manage the electric network effectively, 3D visualization framework is necessary to reveal the complexity of power grid system. In this paper, an interactive online 3D visualization framework is proposed to visualize the electric network related information from power station to the static data of the system. We applied Cesium, an open source platform for 3D visualization based on WebGL supported browsers. Meanwhile, multiple Level of Detail (LoD) structure of power grid facility is generated to improve the speed of 3D model loading and rendering. The experimental results indicate that the proposed framework can integrate and dynamic visualize power grid information from multiple sources. The multiple LoD structure can reduce the model loading time by 76% and increase the FPS over 50% according to the tests on sample data.
