The software for 3D-viewing of educational topic maps

Abstract

Rendering of human knowledge for educational purposes requires the careful selection of the most essential concepts, so educational topic maps must not be too large. In contrast to common case with arbitrary amount of topics, here we can set a task of full visualization of a map on computer display. The solution is not formal and needs some heuristic strokes. Special software converting original TM-file into its VRML image was developed. Several algorithms of visualization are already checked up, but the improvement of the result visual picture will be continued.
