Abstract

Many systems handle 3D-image were used. High-performance computer systems and techniques of compressing images to handle 3D-image were used. But there will be cost problems, if GIS system is implemented, using the high-performance system. And if GIS system is implemented, using the techniques of compressing images, there will be some loss of a image. It will take a long processing time to handle 3D images using a general PC because the size of 3D-image files are very huge. The parallel algorithm presented in the paper can improve speed to handle 3D-image using parallel computer system. The system uses the method of displaying images from nodes to screens, dividing a 3D-image into multiple sub images on multiple nodes. The performance of the presented algorithm showes improving speed by experiments.
