Abstract

Systems and methods for rendering one or more different types of datasets is described. An exemplar method includes: (i) obtaining a first type of dataset, wherein each first data value within the first type of dataset is associated with one or more three-dimensional coordinates, which define a location or region in real space; (ii) obtaining a second type of dataset, wherein each second data value within the second type of dataset is associated with one or more of the three-dimensional coordinates; (iii) spatializing the first type of dataset to create a first type of spatialized dataset; (iv) spatializing the second type of dataset to create a second type of spatialized dataset; (v) aligning the first type of spatialized dataset with the second type of spatialized dataset to create an enhanced three-dimensional spatialized environment; and (vi) rendering the enhanced three-dimensional spatialized environment on a display component.
