Very informative video by the Victorian eResearch Strategic Initiative (VeRSI) on their combination of ArcGIS with their scenario plugin and the 3D game engine SIEVE for visualization; all linked to a touchtable user interface.
Ecoinformatics Touchtable from VeRSI on Vimeo.
SALA at UBC is working on a comparable system for urban neighborhoods; supporting real-time calculation of metrics for feedback, multiple screens, multiple touchtables, and remote screens. The system will go into the new CIRS building and as soon as it is installed there, I will report on it in more detail. Until then, you can find additional information and images at http://www.sala.ubc.ca/work/faculty/elementsdb/cirs-bc-hydro-theatre
