Abstract : The 3D modeling is an important research area in Geographical Information System (GIS) and related fields. Many of the GIS applications need the actual data of the three dimensional (3D) value for their modeling. The 3D visualization of the spatial data gives more ideas about the terrains. The 3DGIS technologies comprise of the combination of GIS and Information Technology (IT).The advancement in the computer and web related technologies boosted the research of 3D GIS. Currently several open source software are available for modeling and developmental purpose. The present study used Cesium JavaScript library for 3D rendering and its customization. Wamp server one of the premier webserver is used for the webhosting. For the development of user interface, HTML and PHP based scripting language was used. The present study aims to design and develop a 3DWeb GIS application for effective visualization, utilization of information and dissemination of spatial data of Karunagappally Municipality, a fast growing town in the western coast of the peninsular India.
