The area of Virtual Marunouchi ranges approximately 2.5km by 2km, which are texture-mapped with IKONOS photo-imaga data (provided by Mitsubishi Corporation). Virtual City Marunouchi includes the display of attribute data such as building names, switching of fly-through to walk-through by clicking a highlighted street, selection and placement of buildings in libraries, links buildings and their related internet homepages by clicking the building.
