Abstract
Of the various kinds of research on the Virtual Reality and GIS, stereo-view is one of the key technologies. The following two aspects are covered in this paper. (1) Physiological fundamental of the natural binocular stereo-vision, theory of 3D color TV and the stereo-view on the CRT screen are presented, especially the theory of widely adopted Time-Division System is introduced. (2) The preliminary practice for using the stereo-view technology on the screen to the terrain visual simulation is described, and the paper shows how to use 3DS to construct a movable real stereo terrain perspective by taking DTM data as the first hand information for the purpose of terrain visual simulation.
