Improved and more complete conceptual model for the revision of IndoorGML

With the increasing number of indoor navigation applications, it is essential to have clear and complete conceptual model (in the form of UML class diagram) for IndoorGML. The current version of IndoorGML standard has an incomplete class diagram (incomplete w.r.t. attributes, of which some are appearing in the XML/GML schema), and that...

About the subdivision of indoor spaces in indoorGML

Boosted by the dynamic urbanization of cities, indoor environments are getting more and more complex in order to be able to host people properly. While most of our time is spent inside buildings, the need of GIS tools to assist our daily activities that can become tedious, such as indoor navigation or facility management, became more and more...

Towards the integration of indoorGML and indoorlocationGML for indoor applications

This paper introduces and compares two types of GML-based data standards for indoor location-based services, i.e., iIndoorGML and iIndoorLocationGML. By elaborating the advantages of the both standards and their data models, we conclude that the two data standards are complementary to each other. A jointed data model is presented to show the...

Indoor Abstract Spaces: Linking IndoorGML and LADM

In this paper we investigate the possible synergy between two different but related standards: OGC’s IndoorGML and ISO TC211’s LADM. Both (can) deal with 3D spaces with properties, constraints and associations attached and both can operate with abstract notations of space. But there are also differences, e.g. LADM is a conceptual model, while...

LANDM and IndoorGML for support of Indoor Space identification

Guidance and security in large public buildings such as airports, museums and shopping malls requires much more information that traditional 2D methods offer. Therefore 3D semantically-reach models have been actively investigated with the aim to gather knowledge about availability and accessibility of spaces. Spaces can be unavailable to...
