CityGML E-Learning Tutorial

What is CityGML?

CityGML is a common information model for the representation of 3D urban objects. It defines the classes and relations for the most relevant topographic objects in cities and regional models with respect to their geometrical, topological, semantical and appearance properties. Included are generalization hierarchies between thematic classes, aggregations, relations between objects, and spatial properties. These thematic information go beyond graphic exchange formats and allow to employ virtual 3D city models for sophisticated analysis tasks in different application domains like simulations, urban data mining, facility management, and thematic inquiries.

What can you find here?

Underneath this introduction section, you will find some general activities you can do, such as discussing problems within the forum or chatting with other participants. Further down, you will find six sections, in which the course is topically separated. Each section comprises of a theoretical part, the lecture on demand, held by Professor Thomas H. Kolbe and a practical part with hands-on exercises, explained by online tutorials.
