Shape inspection options in most of the current online shape repositories provide limited information on the shape of a desired model. In addition, stored models can be downloaded only at the original level of detail (LOD). In this paper, we present our application that combines remote interactive inspection of a digital shape with real-time simplification. Simplification is parameterised, is performed in real-time and the results are again available for inspection. We have embedded the application in a shape repository whereby, having found a suitable simplification, users can download the model at that LOD.
