Research on Virtual Reality Simulation System of Safe Navigation Environment in Three Gorges Reservoir Area

Design principles of safe navigation environment in Three Gorges Reservoir Area are analyzed abstractly and designed realization process in a virtual reality simulation system based on multi-function beacons, environment dynamic forecast model, GIS, AIS and virtual reality technology. On that basis, the system of the hardware frame and software structure is then constructed. The system gives a result of the judgment for the comfort level of navigation environment so that it is able to provide the administrative authority with technical support for decision making. The system has a great significance for enhancing the prediction on the safety of navigation environment.
