Introduction

TunNetView is a very simple, UD-Viz based, web-application allowing the visual exploration of underground cave/tunnel-systems.

A dockerized version is available at TunNetView-docker

For the impatient

git clone https://github.com/VCityTeam/TunNetView.git   # This repository
cd TunNetView

npm run clean
npm install
npm run build
npm run start

open http://localhost:8000

Runtime environment variables

The following environment variables are recognized

• PORT in order to configure the port listened by the http server,
• SYNTHETIC_CAVE_URL in order to designate the URL of the cave point cloud

Usage example

export PORT=8099
export SYNTHETIC_CAVE_URL=https://dataset-dl.liris.cnrs.fr/synthetic-cave-and-tunnel-systems/Cave/cave_sub_1_grid_size_x_1_grid_size_y_1_point_cloud-3dtiles/tileset-translated-to-lyon-cathedral.json
npm run start &
open http://localhost:$PORT

For a higher resolution of the cave use e.g.

export SYNTHETIC_CAVE_URL=https://dataset-dl.liris.cnrs.fr/synthetic-cave-and-tunnel-systems/Cave/cave_sub_4_grid_size_x_1_grid_size_y_1_triangulation-3dtiles/tileset-translated-to-lyon-cathedral.json
