Inspiration
Problem:
Spatial data is everywhere, but understanding it isn't.
Today, information about vehicles, infrastructure,
buildings, and locations is spread across dashboards,
spreadsheets, and static maps.
We wanted to create a unified way to explore and interact
with the physical world through data.
What it does
Rios = Interactive Spatial Intelligence Platform
Capabilities:
• Interactive Map Visualization
• Real-time 3D Scene Exploration
• Vehicle & Asset Monitoring
• Building Annotations
• Area Management
• Search & Navigation
Outcome:
Users can understand complex environments faster
and make more informed decisions.

3D Rendering:
Three.js
Networking:
Axios
Architecture:
Centralized State Management
Challenges we ran into
• Synchronizing map interactions with 3D objects
• Managing shared state between multiple views
• Maintaining performance while rendering
interactive spatial environments
• Designing an architecture flexible enough
for future expansion
Accomplishments that we're proud of
✓ Built a working map + 3D visualization platform
✓ Successfully synchronized map and scene interactions
✓ Created a scalable state-driven architecture
✓ Developed a strong foundation for digital twin systems
✓ Delivered a complete functional prototype
during the hackathon
What we learned
• Spatial data becomes far more useful when visualized
• State management is critical for complex interfaces
• User experience matters as much as technical capability
• Maps and 3D environments complement each other
exceptionally well
