Abstract

The article is devoted to the creation of dynamic assets in the Unity environment for modeling the growth of a tree under various growing conditions. The developed assets are designed to visualize the growth of a tree, taking into account the growing conditions and further use in various information systems. The developed assets are based on many years of generalized research in the field of botany and information technology. The paper analyzes various systems of mathematical modeling of the tree growth, as well as tools for its visualization. A generalized model of tree growth is also described, built on the basis of tables, which takes into account the most important indicators of tree growth — soil quality, the amount of moisture and sunlight received by tree during growing. Based on the research, a collection of spruce tree visualization assets was developed, reflecting different stages of tree development, from planting stage to maturity, in various conditions, and a method was proposed for the formation of optimal collections based on the concept of a dynamic asset to use the obtained dynamic visualization of tree growth during landscaping processes, reforestation, forest management.
