Using RADIUS Site Models without the RCDE

We describe a system for converting RADIUS site models into a Web-accessible form. Once converted, the site models can be downloaded and viewed with standard, off-the-shelf Web browsers. Site models themselves are represented in the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). Each feature in the site model is cross-linked to a Web page that describes that feature in more detail, including image chips and collateral information. A demonstration of work described in this paper is accessible via the URL http://www.ai.sri. com/˜connolly/pathfinder.
