The virtual reality modeling language (VRML) is becoming the standard file format for transmitting three-dimensional virtual worlds across the Internet. Both VRML browsers and authoring tools for the creation of VRML files are widely available for several different platforms. The VRML model described in this paper is for the Phan Rang Bay in Ninh Thuan Province, Vietnam. To disseminate spatial data over the Web, we designed a set of data accessible through a VRML browser. Our implementation uses JavaScript to implement and extend VRML\’s base functionality to making of the virtual coastal characteristics environment.
