Specific challenges for 3D data
• large amounts of data (acquisition & storage)
• expertise and specific tooling required for data processing
• data models and standards
• adequate visualization tools
• data dissemination

How do we fit in?
• Data Storage
• Data Lifecycle Management
• Data Analysis
• for all variations of spatial data
• Vector, Raster, Point Clouds, TINs, Networks, Topologies, ...

Why use a database?!
• Moving Spatial data into IT infrastructure allows to– Lower data management cost– Simplify application development– Integrate with other enterprise data
• Enable development teams to focus on business context, not infrastructure services
– Database and Application Server manage deployment infrastructure• Security • Scalability • Standards Compliance• Load Balancing • Failover • HW/SW Dependencies
– Support multiple application models with common data model• Java • GML • Future …• .Net • Web Services/SOA

Data acquisition in 3D
• large volumes of point data acquired by sensors– LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging)– Seismic sensors
• millions of points to model a scene
• data type to efficiently manage this data– SDO_PC: can handle billions of points
• Triangulated Irregular Network: create surfaces from point data sets– SDO_TIN: scalable storage

Data loading using libLAS
• available from http://liblas.org/
• for Windows, download and install pre-build binaries in the OSGeo4W package http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/– A packaging of a number of open source tools: libraries, desktop GIS (Quantum,
Grass, …), servers (UMN Mapserver, …)
• main tools (see http://liblas.org/docs.html for details)– lasinfo = returns information about a LAS file– las2oci = loads a LAS file into Oracle– las2las = copy and transform a LAS file– las2txt = converts a LAS file to a text format– txt2las = the reverse

Management of 3D data
• correct, integral usage of height information („z“)– 3D indexing and query– coordinate system support
• ability to model 3D objects– points, lines, polygons with „z“– solids, surfaces– point clouds
• need for higher-level data models– eg. support for CityGML data model

Constructing 3D objects
• Simple Surfaces– Face = 3D Polygon
• Composite Surface– Multiple connected faces
• Simple Solid– Closed composite
surface
• Composite Solid– Multiple connected
simple solids
• Extrusion– Generating solids from
2D polygons

Data models for City Modelling
• Structures at multiple levels of detail
• Textures and facades
• Orthophotos
• Versioning
3DCityDB (open source data model) is widely used

City of Berlin – 3D City Model
• 550000 buildings, reconstructed from 2D cadastre and LIDAR data
• Textures extracted from oblique aerial photography
• Stored in 3DCityDB
• 2012 Oracle Spatial Excellence Award
Implemented by TU Berlin
