Fu, Runnan (author), Pađen, I. (author), Garcia Sanchez, C. (author)Due to lack of information and long geometry generation times, tree geometries are usually oversimplified or even ignored in Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) simulations that predict wind and pollutant dispersion in urban areas. Nevertheless, trees are known to impact local wind patterns and air quality levels. Thus, in this paper we explore...journal article 2024

Vitalis, S. (author), Arroyo Ohori, G.A.K. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)Level of Detail (LoD) is a well known concept in 3D city models, used to designate different geometric detail that can be used in different applications. Nevertheless, multi-LoD datasets are hard to maintain and manage because of their intrinsic complexity. Versioning is a solution that aids in the storage and management of big and complex...journal article 2022

Valinejad, Jaber (author), Mili, Lamine (author), van der Wal, C.N. (author)Emergency services and utilities need appropriate planning tools to analyze and improve infrastructure and community resilience to disasters. Recognized as a key metric of community resilience is the social well-being of a community during a disaster, which is made up of mental and physical social health. Other factors influencing community...journal article 2022

van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), van Oosterom, S.J.M. (author), Liu, Haicheng (author), Thompson, R.J. (author), Meijers, B.M. (author), Verbree, E. (author)Point clouds contain high detail and high accuracy geometry representation of the scanned Earth surface parts. To manage the huge amount of data, the point clouds are traditionally organized on location and map-scale; e.g. in an octree structure, where top-levels of the tree contain few points suitable for small scale overviews and lower...journal article 2022

Mazala, Diego (author), Esperança, Claudio (author), Marroquim, Ricardo (author)Designing realistic tridimensional facial models is a challenging task, not only due to the effort and artistic abilities required but also because human visual perception is very tuned to the processing of facial features. For this reason, rather than creating face models from scratch, artists usually start from a scanned model of a real...journal article 2022

Garcia Sanchez, C. (author), Vitalis, S. (author), Pađen, I. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)Climate change and urbanization rates are transforming urban environments, making the use of 3D city models in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) a fundamental ingredient to evaluate urban layouts before construction. However, current geometries used in CFD simulations tend to be built by CFD experts to test specific cases, most of the times...journal article 2021

Zijlstra, H. (author), Ribeiro Nunes, B.F. (author)In the Mastermind Crash course, buildings are analyzed on various aspects, in particular looking at the impact and (measurable) results that the interventions in the building have had. Much of the built heritage is vacant, requires a re-use or the current use requires an update. This causes buildings to change. At Heritage & Architecture we...book chapter 2021

Roth, Thorsten (author), Weier, Martin (author), Bauszat, P. (author), Hinkenjann, André (author), Li, Yongmin (author)Modern Monte-Carlo-based rendering systems still suffer from the computational complexity involved in the generation of noise-free images, making it challenging to synthesize interactive previews. We present a framework suited for rendering such previews of static scenes using a caching technique that builds upon a linkless octree. Our...journal article 2020

Zhang, L. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Liu, H. (author)Point clouds have become one of the most popular sources of data in geospatial fields due to their availability and flexibility. However, because of the large amount of data and the limited resources of mobile devices, the use of point clouds in mobile Augmented Reality applications is still quite limited. Many current mobile AR applications...journal article 2020

Kumar, Kavisha (author), Labetski, A. (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)The Level of Detail (LOD) concept in CityGML 2.0 is meant to differentiate the multiple representations of semantic 3D city models. Despite the popularity and general acceptance of the concept by the practitioners and stakeholders in 3D city modelling, there are still some limitations. While the CityGML LOD concept is well defined for buildings,...journal article 2019

Yang, M. (author), Lopez Dekker, F.J. (author), Dheenathayalan, P. (author), Biljecki, Filip (author), Liao, Mingsheng (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Persistent scatterers (PSs) are coherent measurement points obtained from time series of satellite radar images, which are used to detect and estimate millimeter-scale displacements of the terrain or man-made structures. However, associating these measurement points with specific physical objects is not straightforward, which hampers the...journal article 2019

Wei, Mingqiang (author), Tian, Yang (author), Pang, Wai-Man (author), Wang, C.C. (author), Pang, Ming-Yong (author), Wang, Jun (author), Qin, Jin (author), Heng, Pheng-Ann (author)Bas-relief is characterized by its unique presentation of intrinsic shape properties and/or detailed appearance using materials raised up in different degrees above a background. However, many bas-relief modeling methods could not manipulate scene details well. We propose a simple and effective solution for two kinds of bas-relief modeling (i...journal article 2019

Labetski, A. (author), van Gerwen, Stefan (author), Tamminga, G.F. (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)CityGML, an OGC standard, is an open data model for virtual 3D city models and includes buildings, roads, terrain, water bodies, etc. While many modules are well-developed (eg buildings, bridges, tunnels), the transportation model is, based on our consultations with various government agencies and municipalities, not sufficient for most...conference paper 2018

Guan, X. (author), van Oosterom, P.J.M. (author), Cheng, Bo (author)Because of their locality preservation properties, Space-Filling Curves (SFC) have been widely used in massive point dataset management. However, the completeness, universality, and scalability of current SFC implementations are still not well resolved. To address this problem, a generic n-dimensional (nD) SFC library is proposed and...journal article 2018

Zijlstra, H. (author)During earlier stays in Japan, in 2012 and 2014, I was struck by the great attention to detail, in the scale of the buildings, the streetscape, as well as in the clothing and the presentation of food. Life seems to be an accumulation of independent details that sometimes contrast considerably with one another. A city is made up of buildings, and...book chapter 2018

Labetski, A. (author), Ledoux, H. (author), Stoter, J.E. (author)The increasing popularity of 3D city models in navigation, urban planning, etc.,<br/>necessitates application-specific and geometrically accurate and valid models. The concept of Levels of Detail (LoDs) indicate a model’s scale of adherence to its real-world counterpart.

Löwner, Marc-O (author), Gröger, Gerhard (author), Benner, Joachim (author), Biljecki, F. (author), Nagel, Claus (author)The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) CityGML standard offers a Level of Detail (LoD) concept that enables the representation of CityGML features from a very detailed to a less detailed description. Due to a rising application variety, the current LoD concept seems to be too inflexible. Here, we present a multi representation concept (MRC) that...conference paper 2016
