Generalization3D

public Generalization3D()

Java class that generalizes 3D buildings for different LOD levels. The LOD levels are as follows: LOD 4 - Full texture - Given by Navteq LOD 3 - Same geometry, no texture LOD 2 - "SIMPLIFIED GEOMETRY"-> How?- This class resolves this issue. We either keep ground footprint kept unchanged (choice = 1) or, simplify footprint to reduce faces (choice = 0). Roofs are ignored. LOD 1 - Extrude geometry -> Use footprint and average height LOD 0 - Group LOD 1 Geometry -> Footprints on ground must be merged like hull operation -> extrude This last operation is called typification. We assume during generalization for LOD2 that: - building's ground is at z=0 plane and height is +ive. - building has one store i.e., the ground is connected to roof polygons via single level of polygon. - building has ground polygon(s) defined implicitly -> In other words, we deduce ground plan from side walls of the building. - If ground plan is explicitly defined (NOT supported), we need to deduce ground plan directly from polygon(s) having z-coordinates equal to zero within tolerance (epsilon). Then, use getGroundPlan_old function for this case.

Simplifies input 3D building geometry. LOD 4 - Full texture - Given by Navteq LOD 3 - Same geometry, no texture LOD 2 - "SIMPLIFIED GEOMETRY"-> How?- This function simplifies at this level. We either keep ground footprint kept unchanged (choice = 1) or, simplify footprint to reduce faces (choice = 0). Roofs are ignored. LOD 1 - Extrude geometry -> Use footprint and average height LOD 0 - Group LOD 1 Geometry -> Footprints on ground must be merged like hull operation -> extrude This last operation is called typification. We assume during generalization for LOD2 that: - building's ground is at z=0 plane and height is +ive. - building has one store i.e., the ground is connected to roof polygons via single level of polygon. - building has ground polygon(s) defined implicitly -> In other words, we deduce ground plan from side walls of the building. - If ground plan is explicitly defined (NOT supported), we need to deduce ground plan directly from polygon(s) having z-coordinates equal to zero within tolerance (epsilon). Then, use getGroundPlan_old function for this case.

Parameters:

tolerance - Tolerance

Returns:

a J3D_Geometry (3D) geometry,
