Abstract:
A storage medium for use in a three-dimensional map display device in which a three-dimensional map display model corresponding to a given part on a two-dimensional map is transformed into a desired form to generate and display a three-dimensional image of the given part, said storage medium comprising:two-dimensional map data; standard three-dimensional map display models each being related to at least one part on the two-dimensional map based on three-dimensional configuration patterns into which the at least one part is classified in advance, said standard three-dimensional map display models corresponding to the three-dimensional configuration patterns; and plural pieces of model transforming data corresponding to the at least one part on the two-dimensional map and each being operable to transform a corresponding one of said standard three-dimensional map display models into the desired form.
