On the other hand, the pilot application awarded the development
contract for the 3D Extension by the Regional Ministry of Infrastructure
and Transport is available too. It allows the creation of 3D Views,
XYZ-projected as well as spherical (planetary), where local and remote
data sources can be loaded as layers, and displayed using most of the
options available in 2D like transparency, labeling, legends, etc.

extension you must have correctly installed gvSIG 1.1.1 version.
