Standardising data formats for 3D city models is crucial for semantically storing real-world information as permanent records.
CityJSON is a widely adopted OGC standard format for this purpose, and its variant, CityJSON Text Sequences, decomposes large city objects into line-separated objects to enable streaming processing of 3D city model data.
However, the shift towards cloud-native environments and the increasing demand for handling massive datasets necessitate more efficient data processing methods across different platforms and on the web.
While cloud-optimised data formats such as PMTiles, FlatGeoBuf, Mapbox Vector Tiles have been proposed for vector and raster data, options for 3D city models remain limited.
This research aims to explore optimised data formats for CityJSON tailored for cloud-native processing and evaluate their performance and use cases.
Specifically, the study implements FlatBuffers for CityJSON, incorporating features like spatial indexing, spatial sorting, indexing with attribute values, and partial fetching via HTTP Range requests.
The methodology includes designing a complete binary representation of the CityJSON standard using FlatBuffers, conducting a comprehensive review of existing performance-optimised formats, and benchmarking their performance.
Successful implementation of this research will enable end-users to download arbitrary extents of 3D city models efficiently.
The research demonstrates that FlatCityBuf achieves superior read performance compared to CityJSONSeq while generally producing smaller file sizes.
The approach successfully encoded the entire Netherlands dataset into a single 70GB file containing both spatial and attribute indices, demonstrating scalability for national-scale applications.
For developers, the optimised format enables single-file containment of entire areas of interest, simplification of serverless cloud architecture, and accelerated processing by software applications.
Ultimately, this work improves the scalability and usability of 3D city models in cloud environments, supporting advanced urban planning and smart city initiatives. ...

This project presents an indoor navigation system based on image matching, aiming to address the challenges of localization and navigation in indoor environments. The system utilizes Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technology to capture high-resolution images and point cloud data, combined with the VGG16 model from Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for image processing, feature extraction, and matching.
In our research, we conducted experiments at the Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment of Delft University of Technology, using a SLAM scanner to obtain 360-degree panoramic images and point cloud data of the indoor environment. Through cube mapping projection, we converted the panoramic images into six planar views, selecting the front, right, and left views as positioning references. Additionally, we reconstructed the indoor environment structure and designed node networks for positioning and navigation.
The technical architecture of this system comprises three main components: VGG16-based image feature extraction, cosine similarity-based image matching, and DBSCAN algorithm for location clustering. Through this method, the system can achieve real-time localization results after image capture and provide users with optimal paths using the A* navigation algorithm.
Experimental results show that when using single image matching, the system's room localization accuracy reaches 74.65\%. When employing multiple image matching and DBSCAN clustering methods, the accuracy significantly improves. In our final evaluation involving 116 positions, the system successfully matched 111 of these positions to their correct rooms, achieving a localization accuracy of 95.69\%.
This research not only provides an innovative solution for indoor positioning and navigation but also points the way for future research, including support for multi-floor navigation, enhancing CNN model performance, and automating building processing. This technology has the potential for widespread application in complex indoor environments such as large buildings, conference centers, and university campuses, offering users accurate, real-time positioning and navigation services. ...
