Register for the SIG 3D – OGC – TUM International Workshop on Requirements for CityGML 3.0.

The workshop is sponsored by the companies M.O.S.S. Computer Graphik Systeme GmbH, virtualcitySYSTEMS GmbH, and Technische Universität München.

SIG 3D members developed the first version of CityGML and in 2005 submitted CityGML as a candidate standard into the OGC standards process. CityGML is a comprehensive open data model framework and XML-based encoding standard for the modeling, storage, and exchange of virtual 3D city and landscape models. Since 2008 it is an OGC standard. CityGML is implemented as an application schema of the OGC Geography Markup Language 3 (GML3) Encoding Standard, an international standard for spatial data exchange and encoding approved by the OGC and ISO. CityGML 2.0 has been adopted as part of the European Union’s common spatial data infrastructure, INSPIRE, and it is being implemented across Europe, Canada, the Middle East and Asia.
