Representing the sights of a town using VRML

The paper considers the possibility of using VRML to represent objects placed in their natural environment. The Water Tower, a historical building in our town, has been represented. First, the location of the tower is made with respect to the planet. Then, the water tower is modelled. Objects too distant to be represented in 3D and whose complete details would be difficult to represent, are photographed and the pictures are then glued to its inner walls. Thus, the effect of virtual walk-through is improved significantly.
