OGC and SIG 3D Advance Standards for 3D Digital Cities

  • Rating12345

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and Special Interest Group (SIG) 3D recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to cooperate in standards development and promotion of standards for the exchange and visualization of 3D geospatial content using Web-based technologies. SIG 3D members defined the first version of CityGML and in 2005 submitted CityGML as a candidate
