Abstract
The navigation in complex 3D-models is
complicated because of two circumstances.
First the huge amount of 3D-data slows
down the interaction and second the variety
of details is likely to overload the cognitive
capabilities of the viewer. In such a
situation relevant details are often difficult
to find. This paper describes an interactive
version of the level-of-detail concept (LOD)
to speed up the visualization process and to
reduce irrelevant details at the same time.
