Is this information in pre-rendered bitmap form, or is it data and 
models which can have viewing parameters set on the client for local 
realtime rendering?

(For example, showing how a proposed building would fit into its 
environment could call for tons and tons of images, or just a single 3D 
model file which could then have camera, lighting and shading set on the 
client for repeated local rendering.)
