Presentations and Minutes

Welcome on behalf CSTB + Presentation of Activities of CSTB relying on CityGML Pascal Schetelat (CSTB) Presentation: PDF file of the slides Brief welcome Presentation of CityGML related work at CSTB unification of data models across domain specific studies developing custom ADEs for specific simulation tools’ needs, integrated to public ADEs when worth sharing biggest challenge: filling the gaps in data! Not reading it! Presentation of EveBIM software: reads IFC and cityGML (visualization purposes) many plug-ins for simulation freely downloadable on CSTB website CSTB Wishlist : a nice way to store ADE files in database a material module independent from energy ADE for cross domain studies -> not planned as yet unique ID reference for materials, collecting all domain specific parameters. On independent ADE -> on unique ID, ongoing work: referent = Thomas Kolbe idem, independent module for occupancy module -> not planned as yet
Report on the last semester (All WG leaders) Romain Nouvel (HFT Stuttgart) Presentation: PDF file of the slides Mentimeter quiz on: CityGML Energy ADE for you... Priorities for the next semester? : Make ADE test cases! Activity Activity (measured on GitHub activity) is not constant; attendance to workshops is diminishing -> Would be nice to integrate work on energy ADE into projects, to have time and budget (work on ADE is not only standardization, but also interoperability) Many companies/countries are interested, but not necessarily active… -> Build interest through common publications for example Organisation Wiki page: http://en.wiki.energy.sig3d.org 4 working groups with each 2 coordinators: Building physics: Romain & Mostafa Occupancy: Piergiorio & Giorgio Energy use and systems: Moritz & Silvia Time-dependant data: Alexandru & Kanish Technical committee in charge of XML schema: Joachim & Elisa Problem: there are often collisions between several issues Process: General: Issue created on Github Discussion ongoing, including a feedback from technical committee which has the global overview When discussion has found a consensus, add a “validated by WG” tag TC: Go to modelisation WG: actualize guidelines in the corresponding Github branch, including examples (doc/guidelines/Guidelines_EnergyADE.md, linked to figures in /fig) If need be: feedback from WG, changes by TC Github branches: Master branch = current validated version (today 0.8) When new branch (0.9) is stabilized (including guidelines), merge it to master branch NB: make new branch the default branch, but make the releases clearly visible on the frontpage Deadlines: mid-June: Github issues July: draft modelisation (Joachim) end-July: edit guidelines by WG (in parallel to modelisation) -> edits can be suggested directly into issues, so update is easy and quick a validation by all Mid-August: release of .xsd and guidelines Timeline for v1.0? Before v1.0 there needs to be testing on real case tools… we need to accelerate on this in upcoming semester Proposals for modeling changes: Energy and system Q/ how to integrate simulation data? With Dynamizer module? Q/ management of codelists -> WG Apache license 2.0: Objective: protect our development, before it becomes an OGC standard Implications: anyone can use it, but need to integrate a specific text in header of documents (text quotes license and participant organisations with email contact) In order to go forward: Mustafa needs an explicit email agreement from each participant partner We need to agree on which organizations should be quoted in license (some participate to workshops but are not active, and some are active but do not participate to workshop) -> criteria proposal: regularly active on Github, reactive to emails (to be discussed further) Next meeting: Karlsruhe Options: 7, 8, 14, 15 November; 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 December Provide feedback to Romain on availability

CityGML: standard and practical examples in Austria and Italy Giorgio Agugiaro (Austrian Insitute of Technology) Presentation: PDF file of the slides Modelling cities in CityGML: Experiences from two case studies. Italy (project EnerCity in Trento): LoD2 model generated from footprints and Lidar data by means of BuildingReconstruction Software by VirtualCitySystems (after automatic process, 40% of buildings must be corrected manually). Estimated effort to extend the 3D modelling to the whole city of Trento: 2-3 persons over 1 year Creation of the 3D city model Enrichment of the 3D city model Estimation of buildings' energy performance Austria (project Ci-Nergy in Vienna): estimated effort to complete data integration for the whole city: 5 persons over 1 year 3D City model Data sources Data integration issues
