Abstract

Abstract. Over the last decades, building models have become valuable for a multitude of application scenarios, such as visualisation, simulations and decision support. As the growth of multi-source data consisting of semantic and 2D/3D spatial information, data management becomes feasibility means for facilitating the development and deployment of building model applications. In addition, most studies focus on modelling buildings at geometric level, while semantic analysis can become a promising approach to get a better understanding of built environment. How to utilize multi-source data in a joint manner to further express the building model, therefore, is an emerging challenge. In this paper, we develop a semantic 3D building model based on complex multi-source data. Then, we tackle data management and analysis problems in a geo-database solution for our unified building model. Performance studies on the University of New South Wales (UNSW) campus demonstrate the efficiency of our solution.

Highlights

  • Due to the strong expressive power of visual building model, many real-world regions model 3D geometry and graphical characteristics, as well as spatial and semantic interrelationships as a semantic 3D building model

  • This paper presents a geo-database solution for the management and analysis of building models based on multi-source data fusion

  • According to the high-level conceptual design for unified building model in Section 3.1, we develop our specific 3D building model for University of New South Wales (UNSW) campus based on the elements we have

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Due to the strong expressive power of visual building model, many real-world regions model 3D geometry and graphical characteristics, as well as spatial and semantic interrelationships as a semantic 3D building model. 3D geo-database is a prominent field to support data fusion, semantic explorations and spatial analysis in order to get better understanding of built environment. This paper presents a geo-database solution for the management and analysis of building models based on multi-source data fusion.
