An efficient nd-point data structure for querying flood risk

Governments use flood maps for city planning and disaster management to protect people and assets. Flood risk mapping projects carried out for these purposes generate a huge amount of modelling results. Previously, data submitted are highly condensed products such as typical flood inundation maps and tables for loss analysis. Original...

LADM-IndoorGML for exploring user movements in evacuation exercise

The users' movements in the indoor environments differ based on the condition of the environments. During an indoor emergency, an efficient evacuation is required to help the users to move to the safe areas. Many types of incidents could impact the movements of users and this requires studying the behavior of the people during the evacuation....

Towards an Implementable Data Schema for 4D/5D Cadastre Including Bi-Temporal Support

Cadastral databases have unique requirements not shared by other spatial databases: The third spatial dimension must be included, but visualisation using 2D software must also be accommodated. The majority of users of the Cadastre will use 2D software, and should be provided an “instant in time” plan view of the boundaries (with any 3D parcels ...

Deriving the Technical Model for the Indoor Navigation Prototype based on the Integration of IndoorGML and LADM Conceptual Model

This paper shows the conversion of LADM-IndoorGML conceptual model to technical model. The aim of this research is assessing the conceptual model and discovering the possibilities and the shortcomings of the conceptual model via the conversion to technical model. There are three steps to convert the conceptual model:<br/>- Prepare the LADM...
