      The authors present some algorithms to compute the topology of \(2D\) and \(3D\) hyperelliptic curves. They use that \(2D\) and \(3D\) hyperelliptic curves can be seen as the image of a planar curve (the Weierstrass form of the curve), whose topology is easy to compute, under a birational mapping of the plane or the space. A Maple implementation of the algorithms is provided, and several examples are developed. In addition, some discussions on complexity and certification issues are presented.
