Concept for building licensing based on standardized 3D geo information

The increasing use of neutral semantic data models in the areas of spatial data and architectural design suggest a need to perform building licensing automatically or semi-automatically. Building licensing requires that different types of spatial data be integrated into a single model without losing semantic information. During the checking process it may not be possible to compare and check all data parameters directly. Therefore, models must be evaluated and semantically and geometrically transformed when necessary. This paper introduces a potential workflow concept for building licensing. An approach on how to use data from different models and how to transform data for parameter checking is presented, and a brief outlook is given. 1
