Abstract
In this paper we describe an open source implementing of the Web 3D Service (W3DS) based on the OGC’s draft proposal. The implementation was developed on top of the open source java-based map server GeoServer, as a community module. With an open source implementation available, test beds can be promoted to better know the strengths and limitations of the current proposal. Without practical interoperability assessments demonstrated, W3DS barely become a 3D standard in urban management applications.
