==What are Geo data==
Geographical data or geo data are data which have a location component. Almost all data are 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 are either vectors (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.

What are Geo data

Geographical data or geo data are data which have a location component. Almost all data are 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 are either vectors (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 data relate to the Tygron Platform

Load data from databases

The Tygron Platform uses geo data (vectors and raster) for creating the 3D-model world. For this, the Tygron Platform automatically connects to (Open) Datasets, such as the Base Registers. A principle that generally applies: if your 3D World lacks certain information, then it is not available in the used dataset.
To add missing Geo data you can either update the information in the database and regenerate the 3D world, or you can add additional Geo data manually. More information on how to import additional data is provided on the Geo Data Wizard page.

Used Datasets

The following table contains the datasets that are automatically used when selecting a location within The Netherlands while creating a new project. When selecting a location outside The Netherlands some Geo Data have to be provided manually. Furthermore, the Tygron Platform provides an overview of the used Geo Datasets in the Project Sources overview.
