Web-Based Real-Time LADAR Data Visualization with Multi-user Collaboration Support<bold> </bold>

In this paper we present a web-based visualization system developed for visualizing real-time point cloud data obtained from LADAR (or other) sensors. The system allows direct visualization of captured data, visualization of data from database or visualization of preprocessed data (e.g. labeled or classified data). The system allows the concurrent visualization from same or different data-sources on multiple clients in the web browser. Due to the use of modern web technologies the client can also be used on mobile devices. The system is developed using modern client-and server-side web technologies. The system allows connection with an existing LADAR sensor grabber applications through use of UDP sockets. Both server-and client-side parts of the system are modular and allow the integration of newly developed modules and designing a specific work-flow scenarios for target end-user groups. The system allows the interactive visualization of datasets with millions of points as well as streaming visualization with high throughput speeds.<bold> </bold>
