CityGML is an international standard issued by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) on the modeling, storage, and exchange of semantic 3D city models. Version 2.0 of the standard was adopted by the OGC in March 2012. The Chair of Geoinformatics is actively involved in the development of version 3.0 and coordinates the creation of the specification documents, the data models, and the GML application schemas.
Version 3.0 of the CityGML standard consists of several parts. The first part of the standard, Version 3.0.0 - Part 1: Conceptual Model Standard, was adopted by the OGC in September 2021. The second part on the GML Encoding is planned for publication by the end of 2022.
Project description
In order to increase the usability of CityGML for more user groups and areas of application, the OGC CityGML Standards Working Group (SWG) and the Special Interest Group 3D (SIG 3D) of the initiative Geodata Infrastructure Germany (GDI-DE) work since 2014 on the further development of CityGML.
This development results in the new major version CityGML 3.0 which is to be finalised by the end of 2022. The new version brings a number of improvements, extensions, and new functionalities.
Use of a model-driven approach: The data model is now fully based on the ISO 191xx standards. The software tool Enterprise Architect is used for creating the data model and the GML encoding will be fully automatically derived from the data model using the software tool ShapeChange.
Revised LOD concept: LOD4 has been removed, the interior of objects can be expressed in different LODs 0-3 now. It is e.g. possible to model the outside shell of a building in LOD1 while representing the interior structure in LOD2 or 3.
New and revised modules: CitygML 3.0 includes several new and revised modules which allow for better use of 3D city models in different areas of application such as urban planning, energy simulations, and traffic analyses, reduce redundancy by integrating and providing concepts used in several modules centrally via inheritance, simplify geometry handling, and improve the representation of physical and logical objects.
New Core model: All spatial representations base on the two new pivotal concepts Space and SpaceBoundary. The geometry can now also be given by point clouds. The new core model implements the new LOD concept.
New Construction module: Groups all classes which are similar over different types of constructions like buildings, tunnels, and bridges. Allows for representing constructions not being covered by any of the other modules.
New Versioning module: Allows to explicitly represent and exchange multiple versions of city objects (e.g. history or alternative designs) within one city model dataset. All objects can have bitemporal lifespan data.
New Dynamizer module: Defines concepts to represent and exchange time-varying data for city object properties (e.g. solar irradiation over the day) as well as to integrate sensors with 3D city models. Data sources can be timeseries data represented inline, in external files, or from sensor web services (OGC Sensor Web Enablement or Internet of Things, IoT, in general).
Revised Transportation module: Transportation objects like Roads, Tracks, or Railways can now be subdivided into sections and have an area as well as a center line representation for each LOD.
Revised Building module: Allows now for representing storeys and building units.
Improved interoperability with other standards: CityGML 3.0 allows for better interoperability with other relevant standards like IndoorGML, Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), Land Administration Domain Model (LADM), as well as with Semantic Web Technologies like Resource Description Framework (RDF) and with the EU Directive INSPIRE (Infrastructure for spatial information in Europe).
Backwards compatibility: All modifications to the new CityGML 3.0 model are carried out in a way to ensure backwards compatibility with CityGML 1.0 and 2.0
The CityGML 3.0 standard consists of at least two parts:
The specification "CityGML 3.0 Part 1: Conceptual Model Standard"
The specification "CityGML 3.0 Part 2: GML Encoding Standard"
Further encoding specifications (e.g. relational database schema, JSON-based representation) which may follow in the future
GML application schemata have been derived from the UML model using the software ShapeChange. The current draft of the GML application schemata can be downloaded from this github repository: https://github.com/opengeospatial/CityGML-3.0Encodings (Folder "CityGML")
Test data sets
Test data sets that are compliant to the CityGML 3.0 standard are available here:
ZukunftBau-Research project “3D site plan for building permit applications” launched

As part of Intergeo 2024, the kick-off meeting for the research project "3D site plan for building permit applications" took place on 24.09.2024.
Participants of the kick off meeting
More complex building regulations, scarce building land and the densification of buildings are making it increasingly difficult to submit building permit applications. The growing amount of information makes it more difficult to read official 2D site plans, which is still based on drawings and is an essential part of the planning application documents and demonstrates how the building project fits into its surroundings in terms of building regulations and planning law. At the same time, the planning process is being placed on a completely new procedural and IT basis with the Building Information Modeling (BIM) method. BIM is object-oriented and geometrically 3D from the outset, so it makes sense to base the site plan on 3D as well. A standardized data structure must be the basis for efficient data exchange between those involved in the planning process, including publicly appointed surveyors (ÖbVI), architects and approval authorities. It is particularly relevant for accelerating review processes by means of automatic routines during planning or approval. A quality-assured 3D basis created with geodetic expertise is currently not available to the parties involved in a standardized data structure, which results in a significant gap in the process of a digital building application. Existing projects on the digital building application process do not address the topic of 3D site plans in sufficient depth. The project aims to close this gap and develop and test a prototype for a standardized 3D site plan based on existing standards such as IFC and CityGML. The need for research arises from the fact that the site plan represents the embedding of the new planning in the environment, i.e. data from the BIM and GIS domains must be efficiently integrated and usable. The 3D site plan should become an integral part of the BIM-based building application process and ideally fit into the preliminary work of the ZukunftBau project “BIM-based building application”.
The kick-off meeting for the two-year research project took place on 24.09.2024 as part of Intergeo 2024 [more].
