Summary of research performed


Deliverable D3.12

Step Achievements made Issues tackled

1 Consolidated the 3D CAD models of the bridges (new and

existing).

Model structure and IFC export from native software.

2 Exported IFC models of the bridges, and inclusion of

disturbance-related properties in IFC parameters:

ConstructionTime, WorkerSafety, and ResidentSafety.

Naming and consistency of the IFC parameters.

Current alternatives: certain properties in CityGML instead of IFC models.

3 Exported CityGML models of the bridges using the PANTURA-

CityGML export function that is a plugin for the open-source

BIMServer.

Coordinate systems and conversions.

4 Stored CityGML models of the bridges on open-source Deegree

3D model server; pin-pointed affected urban area in the city.

Storage configuration of the model server.

5 Consolidated 3D GIS maps of the cities, including existing

traffic data model that was available for Rotterdam.

Completeness and compatibility of the native GIS maps;

representation of the explicit shapes involved (like solids or

multi-surfaces for objects); availability of relevant data model

or statistics for disturbance analysis (e.g. traffic, noise).

6 Adjusted / corrected / combined GIS maps including

disturbance-related information as input for Urban Strategy

tool – done with help of the existing FME tool (available on

market).

Generation of traffic data model for case study La Palma –

Spain.

7 Calculated disturbance impacts (i.e. noise and traffic) for 2

case studies.

Determining noise sources and measurements; processing

traffic data models.

8 Output CityGML models of the affected urban area including

the calculation results from Urban Strategy – export from

Urban Strategy model to CityGML model was done with help of

the existing FME tool (available on market).

Re-configuration of the FME tool for CityGML export

according to PANTURA purposes.

9 Visualised output of Urban Strategy analysis results (e.g.

graphical representations of noise level, traffic flow and

congestion in the area depending on various construction

scenarios).

Storing the images on an FTP server connected with the End-

User Application (EUA).

10 Configured and deployed open-source Deegree 3D model

server including PANTURA ADE. The PANTURA ADE keeps the

configuration and allows users to define queries based on

encoding the scenarios and properties.

Configuring the Deegree 3D server for PANTURA schema,

data format, and database/storage location; pre-defining the

WFS queries; fixing technical bugs in the server; setting-up

hardware to host the PANTURA Deegree server (accessible

on www.modelservers.org/deegree-pantura/).

Conclusions• The originality of research in PANTURA is found in the attempt for open-

interoperability of BIM and GIS for the purpose of decision-making in low-disturbance urban projects.

• The PANTURA approach can be generalised to connect a 3D BIM model and a 3D GIS. The BIM model can be generated by any CAD/BIM software with IFC export functionality.

• The challenge of open- interoperability is very high since it must face 4 fronts of complexity at the same time, namely: open BIM; open GIS; connection with an analytical tool, such as the Urban Strategy; and connection with a decision-support tool comprising end-user’s criteria and disturbance key performance indicators. Within the context of this challenge, no straight forward connectivity can be found; and therefore, the selected ICT architecture as discussed in this paper consists of a number of export / conversion steps. The selected ICT architecture has been made operational and verified in two case studies, yet we do not intend to proclaim that this is the most effective and efficient route towards the BIM-GIS open-interoperability. More research is needed to build scientific arguments to support (or oppose) the selected approach.

• One of the innovative solutions which can be derived from experiment in PANTURA is the use of Deegree 3D server to store and make available CityGML data. The server configuration, including the particular purpose for scenario analysis on disturbance impact, has been registered in the PANTURA ADE. This can become an input for future standardisation
