After the essentiality of battlefield visualization being discussed,the paper analyses the new requirements of battlefield visualization for modern warfare.

On the basis of the elaboration of battlefield visualization concepts, this paper then indicates that digital-map-based electronic map and battlefield environment simulation are two new ways to visualize battlefield.

The geospatial information,including:map,imagery and geographical coordinates,has been identified as the basis for battlefield visualization and considered as a crucial element for constructing transparent battlefield.

Analysis of spatial visualization methods for statistical data;

By the methods of contrast, analysis of geographic data, using SupeMap or MapInfor, arranging five grades of red, orange, yellow, green and blue for CCWR in China by synthetic factors, so geographic data are transferred into electronic map of spatial visualization.

For the feature of the distortion of the IKONOS image s is mainly from the geometric,the technology of spatial visualization for the ac curacy determaination and the whole expression are put forward in this paper.

This paper mainly introduces some key pre-processing methods on multi-sensors remote sensing image data for virtual battle space visualization,such as creating pyramid image structure,preparing the data of texture and fast loading the texture.

In this paper,the process and characteristics of new military revolution are analyzed,the concept and content of battlefield information visualization are explained.
