Abstract :
This paper presents the use of the OpenGL (Open Graphic Library) technology in the development of a graphical computational tool, object-oriented, for modeling, simulation and analysis of geo-located electrical distribution networks, where the advantages of the OpenGL technology is explored as the development speed and the improvement of the system´s performance. The conversion of the graphical data for the OpenGL environment is discussed, as well as, its organization in a system of layers where the possibilities of visualization offered by the technology is explored.
