Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure provides a service indicator display method and device. The method includes: obtaining measurement values of service indicators in a building and a three-dimensional grid model of the building, where an outer surface of the model includes multiple polygons; determining, according to the measurement values of the service indicators, a measurement value that is of a service indicator and that is corresponding to a vertex location of each polygon; performing gradient rendering on each polygon according to a legend and the measurement value, to obtain spatial distribution of the service indicators; and displaying the spatial distribution in the building. A surface of a building model is divided more finely by using a polygon, and spatial location distribution of service indicators is reflected more truly by means of gradient rendering, so as to improve network optimization efficiency.
