+To visualize models, you can place visual_objects in teh scenery.
+you have to specify the object name (=osg::Node Name), the tracking ID to allow easy tracking of the objects (currently, extLinkVCL can only transport numbers, so tracking by name is not possible - therfor a tracking ID was introduced). You can add a text label to the object, which is attached to the object.
