3D Digital Landscape Models - From 2D cartographic to 3D topographic data - Second Workshop
29th to 30th November 2010
Landesvermessungsamt Bayern, Munich, Germany

This second workshop continues the momentum generated at a first workshop in Dublin in March (proceedings on this site) and will be focussed along three lines: 3D Landscape Models 3D City Models 3D Data Structures/3D Databases/3D Standards

 

With the evolution of technologies for three-dimensional data acquisition, data handling and data representation, the future for three-dimensional geodata has already begun.

Three-dimensional City, Landscape and Terrain models are new or used differently than before. Whereas small size projects typically may start from scratch, this is currently unfeasible for country-wide models. Here existing 2D (cartographic) data has to be taken into account in order to derive valuable three-dimensional information.

The conference deals with the opportunities and challenges of

  • Migrating 2D cartographic data to 3D topographic data
  • Fusion of 2D and 3D data
  • Positional accuracy improvement
  • Definition of 3D country-wide models
