Geographical data or geo data is data which has a location component. Almost all data is linked to a location or a place and is therefore geo data. Geo data is for example a paper map, a digital web map but also just a simple text file with coordinates. Geo datasets are either vector (features which are points, lines or polygons) or raster data (data in grid cells). The features in vector data can have multiple attributes with values. Raster data mostly has a value and a color.

What is Geo data

Geographical data or geo data is data which has a location component. Almost all data is linked to a location or a place and is therefore geo data. Geo data is for example a paper map, a digital web map but also just a simple text file with coordinates. Geo datasets are either vector (features which are points, lines or polygons) or raster data (data in grid cells). The features in vector data can have multiple attributes with values. Raster data mostly has a value and a color.

How does Geo data relate to the Tygron Platform

Load data from databases

The Tygron Platform uses geo data (vector and raster) for creating the 3D model world. For this, the Tygron Platform automatically connects to (Open) Datasets, such as the base registers. For this process the following general principle applies: if your 3D World lacks certain information, 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 about importing data is provided on the Geo Data Wizard page.

Which Geo datasets are used?

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