3D tours of the Olympic Palaces
The official website of the Winter Olympics in Korea is actively using 3D to visualize sports facilities, terrain and infrastructure.
Conducting the Olympics is a big burden and a serious responsibility for the organizing state. Dozens of sports facilities, support support structures and hundreds of thousands of guests who arrive in an unknown country. Huge help is a variety of information sources on the venues of sports events, where the main component is the official website of the Olympiad. It offers all sorts of maps, tips, timetables, photos, and even 3D. Here's the last and talk.
The main group of informational data is concentrated on the Venues page , where you can select the desired sports object and study the interactive map of the area with schematic symbols of buildings. Also, next to it is easy to find and the button "3D Preview".

For almost all key sports complexes, there are 3D presentations that are made using mixed technology, where three-dimensional objects are adjacent to three-dimensional photos. This allows you to realistically transfer the original appearance of the terrain without a special load on the users' equipment. And this is a definite plus. A regular map is just a schematic drawing, unable to convey the urban beauty of the landscape. Another thing - volumetric immersion in the landscapes of Olympic facilities. This is a fascinating three-dimensional journey, where you can not only understand the location on the ground, but also appreciate the architecture of the complexes .
Beauty is beauty, but functionality is more important. Therefore, the developers have prepared two modes of displaying information, the same for all three-dimensional scenes. So, when you click the “Facility Guide” link on the map, much-needed explanations appear for key and auxiliary objects, such as catering points, medical facilities, etc. This allows you to easily navigate the terrain, using a mobile browser to view the 3D-scene.
In some cases, the developers went even further and displayed the interior of sports complexes in 3D.
The purpose of the electronic guide is to explain to visitors as simply as possible how to get to your destination faster. To do this, use the camera motion animation. There is also an opportunity to look with “eyes” from your future location and evaluate the intended review. The latter, obviously, can help with the purchase of a ticket.
Depending on the type of sports facility, the logic of the “conductor” in the presentation may vary. So, for the center of biathlon , the camera shows the key points of the track with text explanations. This is enough to get an idea not only about the place of competition, but also to clarify the features of this sport.
The amount of work done is impressive. Almost all the key objects of the Winter Olympiad were embodied in 3D, which allows you to virtually “travel” in mobile device browsers. It is convenient to do this right on the spot, which probably helped thousands of guests of Pyeongchang to navigate the terrain.
To create 3D applications, the Blend4Web framework was chosen - the development of domestic programmers.
