Abstract
Three-dimensional models with three-dimensional coordinates for a certain area to be displayed on the screen based on coordinates of a reference position are received. The received three-dimensional models are classified according to the positions of nodes of polygons for the three-dimensional models. As for the three-dimensional models of which the nodes of the polygons exist on the same plane, they are displayed on the screen through automatic triangulation using a general three-dimensional graphic library. As for the three-dimensional models of which the nodes of the polygons do not exist on the same plane, they are displayed on the screen by converting the three-dimensional coordinates of the nodes of the polygons into three-dimensional coordinates based on a view point, converting the converted three-dimensional coordinates into two-dimensional coordinates through projection conversion onto a projection plane, and converting the two-dimensional coordinates into screen coordinates.
