Abstract
“How do the rescue helicopters find out an optimized path to arrive at the site of a disaster as soon as possible?” or “How are the flight procedures over mountains and plateaus simulated?” and so on. In this paper a script language on spatial moving objects is presented by abstracting 3D spatial moving objects’ behavior when implementing moving objects simulation in 3D digital Earth scene, which is based on a platform of digital China named “ChinaStar”. The definition of this script language, its morphology and syntax, its compiling and mediate language generating, and the behavior and state control of spatial moving objects are discussed emphatically. In addition, the language’s applications and implementation are also discussed.
