The 3D engine be applied in many project. Figure 19 shows 
some results created by PowerCity3D. 
The results show that the 3D engine can render highly reality 3D 
scene and user can obtain highly immersion. User can ramble in 
3D scene and inquire information based on database. In the 
future, we will pay more attention to study in large dataset 
accelerate rendering and object action simulation.
