summary	This paper reports on a virtual environment model under development, specifically aimed at the discussion of possible tools and strategies for representation, communication and analysis of the urban development projects prepared for the Brussels Capital Region. In the introduction, certain characteristics of alternative urban development projects prepared for the Region are briefly reviewed and the opportunities provided by the latest information and communication technologies are discussed. Afterwards, the preliminary ideations of the model are provided through different illustrations and the initial implementations related to location-based representation, involving time dimension and augmented reality are presented. In conclusion, application challenges faced during the preliminary phase are reported and future directions are discussed.

summary	In this paper, we discuss the different applications of virtual city and environment models within different frameworks and try to reveal their important qualities in relation with their approaches for creating prospective urban developments. Certain uses of urban models and technologies are examined through seven critical cases with a focus on (what) is being modeled, place (where), actors (who), date (when), objectives (why) and approaches (how) adopted for design and development. In the elaboration part, we evaluate and comparatively discuss the interrelated conditions or circumstances that form the setting for these models. In conclusion, a new understanding of Geographical Virtual Environments is reviewed and the critical questions that can determine the future prospects are addressed.
