Exploring Unconventional 3D Geovisualization Methods for Land Suitability Assessment: A Case Study of Jihlava City

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Effective management of urban development requires robust decision-support tools, including land suitability analysis and its visual communication. This study introduces and evaluates seven 3D geovisualization methods—Horizontal Planes, Point Cloud, 3D Surface, Vertical Planes, 3D Graduated Symbols, Prism Map, and Voxels—for visualizing land suitability for residential development in Jihlava, Czechia. Using five raster-based data layers derived from a multi-criteria evaluation (Urban Planner methodology) across three time horizons (2023, 2028, 2033), the visualizations were implemented in ArcGIS Online and assessed by 19 domain experts via a structured questionnaire. The evaluation focused on clarity, usability, and accuracy in interpreting land suitability values, with the methods being rated on a five-point scale. Results show that the Horizontal Planes method was rated highest in terms of interpretability and user satisfaction, while 3D Surface and Vertical Planes were considered the least effective. The study demonstrates that visualization methods employing visual variables (e.g., color and transparency) are better suited for land suitability communication. The methodological contribution lies in systematically comparing 3D visualization techniques for thematic spatial data, providing guidance for their application in planning practice. The results are primarily intended for urban planners, designers, and local government representatives as supportive tools for efficient planning of future built-up area development.
