| ==Export Geo data==

| ===Export vector data===
| |
| The components that make up the 3D world can be exported as 2D vector data in [[GeoJSON]] format. With this data, further/other calculations or analysis can be done in for example GIS software.
| |
| In the Current Situation tab, each of the following menus has an export GeoJSON option:
| |
| *[[Buildings]]
| |
| *[[Terrains]]
| |
| *[[Neighborhoods]]
| |
| *[[Zoning]]
| |
| *[[Plots]]
| |
| *[[Areas]]
| |
| *[[Network]]

| In the Export Item File panel that will show up, different options for exporting are available:
| |
| * Objects from a certain category/type (only for the [[Buildings]] and [[Terrain|Terrains]]) can be exported by selecting the desired category/type.
| |
| * Only objects that have a certain attribute can be exported by checking the ''With Attribute'' option and selecting the desired attribute. For example if you only want [[Culvert_(Water_Overlay)|culverts]], you can select the category ''Underground'' (since the function culverts belongs to the category Underground) and check the ''With Attribute'' option and select the attribute name ''CULVERT_DIAMETER'' for example. This will export culverts, since only these objects have this attribute in common.

| ===Export raster data===
| |
| [[Grid_Overlay|Grid overlays]] can be exported as a GeoTIFF or ASCII file. With such a file, calculations from for example the [[Water_Overlay|Water overlay]] can be exported to be further processed for analysis in GIS software. For exporting the grid overlays, take also note of the [[Grid_Overlay#Grid_size|grid size]]. The smaller the grid size, the more accurate the exported GeoTIFF is.

| In the Export Grid File panel that will show up, different options for exporting are available:
| |
| *If in a [[Test_Run|test run]] the option ''Export difference (current and maquette)'' is selected, the difference in results between the maquette state and the current state will be exported. If you checked this option outside of the test run, or did not do any [[Action|Actions]], the exported dataset will consist no difference.
| |
| * For the [[Water_Overlay|water overlays]], it is possible to export a dataset at a certain [[Timeframes_model_attribute_(Water_Overlay)|timeframe]], by selecting the ID of the timeframe. Keep in mind that the ID of the timeframe start at 0. Thus if you have 10 timeframes in the overlay, the timeframes IDs range from 0 to 9.

What is Geo data
Geographical data or geo data is data which have a location component. Almost all data is linked to a location or a place and are, therefore, geo data. Geo data can be, for example, a paper map, a digital web map or just a simple text file with coordinates. Geo datasets is either vector data (that is, features which are points, lines or polygons) or raster data (that is, data in grid cells). The features in vector data can have multiple attributes with values. Raster data mostly consist of a value and a color.
How do Geo datasets relate to the Tygron Platform
Tygron Platform loading screen showing several of the data connections
The Tygron Platform uses Geo data (vector and raster data) for creating the 3D-model world. For this, the Tygron Platform automatically connects to (Open) Datasets, based on the availability of the data for the chosen location of the project. For example the Base Registers in the Netherlands and Open Street Maps worldwide.
A principle that generally applies: if your 3D World lacks certain information, then it is not available in the used datasets.
For more information on which data is used for your generating your project, see the project sources page.
To add missing Geo data you can add additional Geo data manually (see below for options).
When to use your own data
- The project takes place in a location for which there are no data sources available to create the project
- The default data sources are not accurate or up-to-date enough
- The default datasets are not detailed enough
- To do a more extended analysis in the Tygron Platform
- To use in combination with an Excel Indicator or Panel
- For creating more overview in your project, for example by highlighting areas
In these situations, it might be useful to overwrite or import data.
