Abstract
This paper describes a structure and a user interface of the Internet based 3D presentation of existing historical part of city Prague. The application offers a smooth tour to selected regions of the real city, utilizing number of standard and modern technologies including VRML, Java, and PHP. The architecture of the whole virtual model is presented together with several advanced and specific features like dynamic loading und unloading objects or newly proposed LOD for urban scenes. This running web application seems to be currently unique in terms of complexity, functionality, and scaleability for further growth. The paper introduces methodology suitable for immediate creation of arbitrary virtual city according to a real one.
