Flexible generation of semantic 3D building models

Dr. J. Benner, Andreas C. Geiger, Klaus Leinemann

Open publisher page 47 citations

Abstract

The paper presents a new 3D semantic building model dedicated to urban development. It provides the following special semantic features: storeys, passages, opening objects, and building variants, modelling different levels of detail and design respectively temporal variants. The model also includes a parametric part supporting easy generation of buildings and building variants in the urban design phase. In order to make the powerful tools of the CA(A)D world accessible to city modeling, a toolbox is being developed for transformation of IFC data. These extensions and addition facilitate multiple utilization of city models and thus enhance sustainability of modeling.
