Concepts Towards Nation-Wide Individual Tree Data and Virtual Forests
Individual tree data could offer potential uses for both forestry and landscape visualization but has not yet been realized on a large scale. Relying on 5 points/m2 Finnish national laser scanning, we present the design and implementation of a system for producing, storing, distributing, querying, and viewing individual tree data, both in a web browser and in a game engine-mediated interactive 3D visualization, “virtual forest”. In our experiment…
Open Geospatial Data Integration in Game Engine for Urban Digital Twin Applications
Increasing interest has recently been shown towards the digital twins of cities. These urban digital twins utilize 3D city models together with other data sources, such as open data, which can be accessed, e.g., through application programming interfaces (APIs). A large amount of open geospatial data is already available through various open data portals and APIs, such as REST and MQTT. Game engines, on the other hand, have been seen as highly po…
Near Real-Time Semantic View Analysis of 3D City Models in Web Browser
3D city models and their browser-based applications have become an increasingly applied tool in the cities. One of their applications is the analysis views and visibility, applicable to property valuation and evaluation of urban green infrastructure. We present a near real-time semantic view analysis relying on a 3D city model, implemented in a web browser. The analysis is tested in two alternative use cases: property valuation and evaluation of …
D Point Cloud Data in Conveying Information for Local Green Factor Assessment
The importance of ensuring the adequacy of urban ecosystem services and green infrastructure has been widely highlighted in multidisciplinary research. Meanwhile, the consolidation of cities has been a dominant trend in urban development and has led to the development and implementation of the green factor tool in cities such as Berlin, Melbourne, and Helsinki. In this study, elements of the green factor tool were monitored with laser-scanned and…
Sense of presence and sense of place in perceiving a 3D geovisualization for communication in urban planning – Differences introduced by prior familiarity with the place
Technological development towards increased visual quality and accessibility has made photorealistic 3D geovisualizations an interesting tool for communication in urban planning. Particularly the ability to support perception is important in assessing 3D geovisualizations’ effectiveness for communication. We applied both the concept of sense of presence, i.e. effectiveness of the medium, and sense of place, i.e. meanings and affordances, in a use…
A Simple Semantic-Based Data Storage Layout for Querying Point Clouds
The importance of being able to separate the semantics from the actual (X,Y,Z) coordinates in a point cloud has been actively brought up in recent research. However, there is still no widely used or accepted data layout paradigm on how to efficiently store and manage such semantic point cloud data. In this paper, we present a simple data layout that makes use the semantics and that allows for quick queries. The underlying idea is especially suite…
Nighttime Mobile Laser Scanning and 3D Luminance Measurement
Roadside vegetation can affect the performance of installed road lighting. We demonstrate a workflow in which a car-mounted measurement system is used to assess the light-obstructing effect of roadside vegetation. The mobile mapping system (MMS) includes a panoramic camera system, laser scanner, inertial measurement unit, and satellite positioning system. The workflow and the measurement system were applied to a road section of Munkkiniemenranta,…
