| Abstract:
A model of a city block in Vienna containing 56 Objects was created using a low-detail geometric model, fine structures in the fassades modeled by applying photographic textures. The information about the geometry was obtained from the two-dimensional Geographic Information System (GIS), the roofs were modeled using stereoscopic analysis of aerial photographs.
These information sources were fused in a manual process. With the Program WorldView the digital city model can be visualized, the focus lay on a natural and intuitive way of steering and moving around the digital model. Physical impossibilities were avoided, so that a user feels comfortable in the virtual environment and can expect physically correct reactions for his input.

| A tool was created to correct color variations in the photographs on a fassade. Differing illumination can be compensated as well as smooth shadows. The color reference point can also be obtained from a second picture so that two images will show exactly the same colors in their fassades.
