ResumoThis paper explores the use of eXtensible Mark-up Language (XML) technologies, including eXtensible three-Dimensions (X3D), Scene Application Interface (SAI), eXtensible path (Xpath) and eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) to display and manipulate a model along with associated temporal data. X3D, which is the new standard for the display of three-dimensional models over the World Wide Web, offers significant improvements for real-time client-side manipulation over other methods available for use on the Internet. These improvements are due to X3D being an application of XML. Real-time client side manipulation and display of a model and associated textual information through use of a Web Browser and Plugin is demonstrated. A single file is employed to contain all data related to how the structure has evolved and developed over time. This allows the user to view and explore the model in different states (times) and to read relevant historical textural information.
