Abstract
In this paper we described our experience in the development of real time interactive 3D systems in the form of a framework — HorizoN Sentry — that allows not only the real time simulation of environments based in Geographical Information Systems data but also its fusion with life sensors like traffic, Global Navigation Satellite Systems and weather based sensors. A design to implementation view of the system is shown together with demonstration results based in the European Space Agency framework projects and private developments.
