Abstract

In this paper we present EVISUGE, a system that allows the visualization and management of real-world scenarios on Google Earth. An EVISUGE scenario is composed of events, which are represented according to the MOME (Mobile Multimedia Event Capturing and Visualization) event representation model that we have developed. The scenario events are visualized on top of the Google Earth 3D interactive maps, with respect to their spatial and temporal features. We demonstrate the EVISUGE system through a real-world scenario: The specification and visualization of a naturalistic route.
