Patent Images

1. An improved method for providing information of a digital raster image of the type whereindigitizing a paper document to create a digital raster image,recording scale information associated with the paper document and a digitizing device,embedding the scale information in a header of the digital raster image,storing the digital raster image as a first file, wherein said embedded scale information is embedded in said header of said first file,rendering the digital raster image in a digital image viewer wherein the improvement comprises:

  • creating a three dimensional rendering of said digital raster image, wherein said three dimensional rendering has a three dimensional coordinate system;

    storing the three dimensional rendering as a second file;

    wherein said digital raster image has a two dimensional coordinate system,wherein said three dimensional coordinate system and said two dimensional coordinate system are matched and linked in real-time,wherein said digital raster image of the paper document and the three dimensional rendering of said digital raster image are capable of being viewed simultaneously.
