3D GIS, City Models and Digital Twins

This set of learning material consists of three parts. The first part deals with concepts and data standards related to 3D city models, such as different geometric vector models, voxel representation, semantics of 3D city models and data standards (CityGML). The second part deals with the acquisition and management of 3D geospatial data, for instance from tacheometry, photogrammetry and terrestrial and aerial laser scanning. Commonly used software tools are also reviewed. This part also includes three different assignments with data. The third part deals with digital urban twins, with a specific focus on the usage of sensors and sensor networks. This part also comes with an assignment using air quality sensor networks.
