Geo Data
What is GEO Data
How does GEO Data relate to the Tygron Engine?
What GEO Data sources are used?
The Tygron Engine uses automatically connected Geo Data sources for The Netherlands to generate the 3D World. When the selection is made on the map in the wizard the 3D World is built up based on the available GEO Data in the connected data sources. For all the different environmental elements the data base with the most complete and relevant Geo data is connected. All together this forms the 3D World. For this proces the principle applies: If you miss something in your 3D World it is not available in the data base otherwise it would be present in the 3D World. To complete the Geo data you can either update the information in the data base, or you enter additional Geo data manually. More infomation about how you can enter the data manually is also explaind on the GeoJSON.
The following table contains the automatically connected data sources that are used for The Netherlands. For abroad counties this can give some exapmles of the desired Geo Data you want to collect and connect to build the 3D World for your own project. At the bottom of the table an integrated data source connection is mentioned. More information about his option is documented on the xxx page.

When to use your own GEO Data?
When a project is situated outside of The Netherlands only ESRI data is connected and will load automatically when the 3D world is generated. Beside water and elovation of land, this does not contain any information about constructions and/or environmental characteristics. In use case 3 an exapmle is given of how to connect the needed Geo Data to built up a 3D environment. It is also possible to implement your own Geo data for a project that is situated within the Netherlands but the diffrence is that this will be additional geo data instead of basic geo data in order to generate the 3D world.
