van der Vaart, Jasper (author)The flexibility of the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) format makes it challenging to blindly rely on the data it stores. This is because, to allow its flexibility, the stored data in an IFC file can be missing, incorrect, redundant, or stored in vague ways while the file can still be considered format compliant. This missing reliability is an...master thesis 2022

de Jong, Michiel (author)In the modern world, evacuating a building in a safe and orderly manner remains a challenge. Fire-based emergencies in a building are dynamic environments that can be simulated to better understand, analyse, and contribute to safer and smarter buildings. While different spatial representations exist, <i>voxels</i> provide a structured, flexible...master thesis 2022

Caceres Tocora, Camilo (author)Semantic segmentation of aerial images is the ability to assign labels to all pixels of an image. It proves to be essential for various applications such as urban planning, agriculture and real-estate analysis. Deep Learning techniques have shown satisfactory results in performing semantic segmentation tasks. Training a deep learning model is an...master thesis 2022

Smit, Mels (author)Over the years, the pace at which data is generated keeps on increasing. As a consequence, the data itself no longer holds the highest value, but rather the information and context the data captures are. This principle also holds in the 3D environment modelling scene, as accurately depicting an environment holds more value than the number of...master thesis 2022

Roy, Ellie (author)Data on the number of floors is required for a variety of applications, ranging from energy demand estimation to flood response plans. Despite this, open data on the number of floors is currently not available at a nationwide level in the Netherlands. This means that it must be inferred from other available data. Automatic methods usually...master thesis 2022

Maundri Prihanggo, Maundri (author)The Indonesian government mentioned the urge to accelerate the process of providing detailed spatial plan maps. Moreover, to have one standard of reference, detailed spatial plan maps need to use large-scale (1:5.000) base maps as reference. Furthermore, the Indonesian government established the One Map Policy agenda as a legal basis for...master thesis 2022

CHATZIDIAKOS, Charalampos (author)In recent decades, it is well known that transportation systems have a crucial role in the economic development and social prosperity of modern societies. While road width can be considered as one of the most important factors of the road environments, there is no clear definition of it. To better understand this, we need to reconsider the width...master thesis 2021

Giannelli, Denis (author)In the Global South, large urban spaces resulted in the duality between the so-called ‘formal’ and ‘informal’ cities. It is the case of São Paulo, a twenty-two-million people metropolis and a financial hub in Latin America. Albeit a vast literature addresses the social-spatial segregation emerging from this dual built environment, the scarcity...master thesis 2021
