3D GIS Modeling at Semantic Level using CityGML for Urban Segment

Acknowledgement The presented research is part of my M. Tech. Project work that has been carried out at Indian Institute of Remote Sensing. The guidance and support of colleagues in the making of the thesis deserve a special mention. It is a pleasure to convey my gratitude to them all in my humble acknowledgement. The first of all I am extremely indebted to my supervisor, Dr. Sameer Saran, Scie...

Citygml-based 3d City Model for Energy Diagnostics and Urban Energy Policy Support

This paper aims to evaluate the accuracy and strength of a new approach that automatically calculates the heating demand of whole district areas, modelled in 3D with the open standard CityGML. For this purpose, two residential districts in Ludwigsburg and Karlsruhe have been chosen as case studies. To evaluate the accuracy of the model, the simulation results were compared to real measured cons...

Looking for a New Order in Urban Energy Efficient Strategies in Urban Studies

Innovative Strategies for Urban Heritage Conservation, Sustainable Development, and Renewable Energy

Cities can make a difference resolving the above three critical issues. Urban policies are essential in order to counteract the negative effects of climate change. These policies include land use, transportation, waste management, construction methods, and many other aspects of the current environmental challenge. Similarly, overcoming of poverty, unemployment, and social exclusion, along with ...

Simstadt, a New Workflow-driven Urban Energy Simulation Platform for Citygml City Models

In this paper, we introduce new urban energy simulation platform SimStadt, which has been developed to support public authorities and engineering companies in the planning of the energy transition at urban scale. SimStadt design is marked by two particular features: 1it is based on the open 3D city model CityGML and, 2its workflow-driven structure is highly modular and extensible. These particu...
