Niantic Spatial’s Large Geospatial Model
For every problem there is a solution and if we deal with geodata there should be also a spatial intelligence tool. This principle applies to "AI domain" as well and Niantic has a very good foundation for starting a promising enterprise to build a large geospatial model (LGM)...
BIM in the City
Apart from the road we are also dealing with the representation of the rest of the environment and we talked about the usage of CityGML and BIM for that. Nevertheless, the difference still was not quite clear and that's why we tackle this task once and for all...
Experts’ Voices: Hacks and the City
With the introduction of concepts like Smart Cities it became necessary to connect information across the silos in which they were held. One solution is to extend existing formats beyond their original purpose and, thus, have them aggregate concepts and information from other domains...
