Finding Optimal Paths in Indoor Spaces using 3D GIS

3D-GIS를 이용한 건물 내부공간의 최적경로탐색

3D-based information is needed increasingly as well as 2D Information as cities grow and buildings become large and complex, and use of 3D-models is getting attention to handle such problems. However, there are limitations in using 3D-models because most applications and research efforts using them have been for visual analysis. This study presents a method to find optimal paths in indoor spaces as an illustration for using 3D-models in spatial analysis. We modeled rooms, paths and other facilities in a building as individual 3D objects. We made it possible to find paths based on network structure by integrating the vector-based networks of 2D-GIS and 3D-model.
