Integrated modeling of utility networks in the urban environment

In recent years, there has been an exponential growth in the need for 3D spatial information, particularly 3D models representing the geographic information of the urban environment. The existence of a comprehensive integrated 3D model representing the condition of the underground utility networks in accordance with the above-ground city objects...

Design and Evaluate the OGC Web Services Architecture of a Geohazard analysis tool

Open standards like Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards can be used to improve interoperability and re-usability among geospatial tools, datasets and services across the web. Today more than six thousands commercial and non commercial implementations of the OGC Web Services (OWS) are available, and more and more Geographical Information...

Towards interoperable standards for 1D time series data within the water sector

Water management is becoming increasingly important in the world. Population growth, climate change, and increasing demands placed on infrastructure call for a smart and standardized approach. The data needs to stay at the source and sharing information in a more efficient way is becoming increasingly important. To make this possible in the...

A cityGML 3D geodatabase for building's energy efficiency

This paper illustrates the results of a research focused on the development of a multi-scale geodatabase designed to store the data needed to measure the energy buildings performance of buildings to be used for the planning activities of local administrations. Due to the great complexity of the application domain, the proposed data model has...
