Abstract

In this article, we introduce a method for synchronizing operations from 2D digital mapping software to 3D digital sand table software using AI technology. This method solves the challenges and difficulties of combining 2D and 3D in military applications, such as the difference between 2D and 3D space, the accuracy and efficiency of the synchronization process, and the user experience when working with three-dimensional space. This method also uses AI models to detect and classify objects on the terrain and estimate the Z coordinates of objects on 3D sand tables. This method has been applied in the T3BD system, including 2D (GISDesktop) and 3D (GlobeDeskop) applications, and has been used by several units in the military. Experimental results show that this method achieves low synchronization times for all types of objects, from simple to complex. This method can improve the accuracy and efficiency of the synchronization process and enhance the user experience when working with three-dimensional space.
