TL;DR: This paper analyzes the consequences of the integration of additional non-spatial dimensions in a higher dimensional spatial model, as well as the techniques that are necessary in order to extract meaningful 2D/3D information from it, which can be used with existing algorithms and software.

Abstract: Real-world phenomena have traditionally been modelled in a GIS in two and three dimensions. However, powerful insights can be gained by the integration of additional non-spatial dimensions, such as time and scale, in a higher dimensional spatial model. While this theory is conceptually sound, there is a lack of understanding of its consequences when applied to real world geographic information. In this paper we therefore analyse these consequences, as well as the techniques that are necessary in order to extract meaningful 2D/3D information from it, which can be used with existing algorithms and software.

Multi-scale geometric-semantic modeling of shield tunnels for GIS and BIM applications
TL;DR: A comprehensive concept for incorporating multi‐scale representations with building information models, with a particular focus on the geometric‐semantic modeling of shield tunnels is presented, and particular emphasis is put on providing means for preserving the consistency of the representation across the different Levels‐of‐Detail (LoDs).

Modeling a 3D City Model and Its Levels of Detail as a True 4D Model
TL;DR: This paper describes how the linking method works in practice by appropriately linking existing 3D models of the same object at different LODs to construct a 4D model, and describes four different alternatives to do this.
Addressing Public Law Restrictions within a 3D Cadastral Context
TL;DR: Stipulations implying restrictions in 3D space within current legislation are presented, along with the restrictions deriving from the absolute character of ownership right, thus highlighting the significance of 3D definition, modeling and recording of PLRs.

TL;DR: This research demonstrates that it is possible to generate 3D city models without elevation measurements, inherently augmenting the LOD of coarser data (2D footprints), and proposes a new LOD specification that may be integrated in product portfolios and tenders as a better language for communicating the specifics of a dataset to be acquired.
