Zusammenfassung
This work describes the use case, design and development of a virtual reality application for the visualization of multi-dimensional road works data. For successfully coordinating construction sites affecting roads and traffic, spatial and temporal dependencies need to be considered. In widely used 2D visualizations such as Gantt-charts and digital map tools, the relevant data and dependencies cannot be shown at once or well associated resulting in high cognitive load. Therefore a 3D interactive visualization with multiple map layers was designed and developed using virtual reality. The usability of the prototype was evaluated in a small user study and expert interview.
