The challenge

The client needed to compare as-planned and as-mined data over time, across terrain and hundreds of thousands of objects, in a web browser.

What we built

We built a 4D viewer (3D plus time) with three.js and React. It renders terrain and temporal data, and animates extruded objects and particles along a timeline.

What we delivered

  • GeoJSON and DXF import
  • 2D contours meshed into 3D terrain
  • Contours generated from terrain cross-sections
  • Custom extrusions with attributes
  • Timeline filter and animation player
  • Draggable legends and property windows, 3D compass and scale axes
  • Dark and light themes, snapshots, full-screen mode and sunlight effects

The outcome

Smooth visualization of hundreds of thousands of extruded objects, with faster meshing and cross-sectioning.

We had some very advanced development requirements. Prolincur completed them successfully and on time… also added functionality that made the software even better than we envisioned.
