Earth observation technology has developed rapidly nowadays, accumulating a great amount of data for studying earth system science and other global issues. But when facing the massive, multi-source and multi-resolution global data, how could it be rationally organized and managed to improve the efficiency of data analysis has become a challange. The geospatial information subdivision organization, as a new organizational idea of spatial information, is regarded as a potential solution. Among various domestic and international geospatial information subdivision organization frameworks, the GeoSOT-3D subdivision framework, proposed by the team of Professor Cheng Chengqi from Peking University, has obtained extensive close attention. Nevertheless, the spatial data at global scale are often massive and rich in content, resulting in a contradiction that the amount of data to be processed is far beyond the processing ability of the computer when expressing geospatial objects. To solve this problem, this paper combines the geospatial information subdivision model with the existing 3D rapid visualization technology, and proposes a clipping and hidden face removal strategy assisted by the octree to achieve the rapid subdivision expression of geospatial objects based on the GeoSOT-3D. Taking the expression of space electromagnetic field for example, we developed a demo system and discussed the simulation results. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method exhibited a better effect and to some extent resolved the issue of efficiency in the expression of spatial objects.
