Almost any Geo data (data that refers to specific locations and contains geometry) can be imported into Tygron Platform. There are different methods for importing Geo data. The method to choose is based on how you have your data available, as vector or raster data and/or what the data represents.

Vector data

Use the Geo data wizard to import vector data. The wizard also helps you to transform your data to the proper format for importing. There are five different import methods:

  1. with a GeoJSON, GeoPackage or DXF file for 2D data
  2. with a IFC, CityGML or SLPK file for 3D data
  3. through a Web Feature Service (WFS)
  4. through a Catalogue Service for the Web (CSW).
  5. through ArcGIS Online: with this option you can also log in to your ArcGIS Online organization or ArcGIS Enterprise portal to add Map service data to your project.

Shapefiles are not directly supported; these can be converted to a GeoPackage or GeoJSON using QGIS.

Raster data

There are two different import methods:

  1. through a Web Coverage Service (WCS) or Web Map Service (WMS).
  2. as a GeoTIFF Overlay with optional QML

Plan

It is possible to import a spatial plan into the Tygron Platform, either for visualization or to calculate the effects on the surroundings. For 2D plans, the software uses models that correspond to the selected Functions for visualization. When importing 3D models, the actual model, including textures, will be imported.

Notes

  • The Geo dataset should have a CRS (Coordinate Reference System) defined, for the Tygron Platform to properly translate the coordinates to the right location.
  • Vector data: Tygron Platform only supports polygons; the data wizard automatically buffers any line or point features into polygons.
  • Vector data: all desired attributes must be numerical, so that they can be loaded as valid attribute values. Non-numeric attributes are ignored when attempting to load them as attributes.
