Capabilities and Requirements

Capabilities and Requirements

C1: Cities and communities can easily transfer geospatial data between internal and external (including IoT-related) IT systems.

C1 Requirements:

R1: Geospatial data shall be exposed through a standards-based web service interface.

C2: Cities and communities can integrate 2D and 3D geospatial data coming from a variety of sources, for example geodata and building information models, and share that data within, and between them in an interoperable way.

C2 Requirements:

R2: Geospatial data shall be encoded using open standards. It is recommended to use relevant standards from OGC and Building Smart International.

C3: Cities and communities can integrate geospatial data with other data that can provide further information about the context.

C3 Requirements:

R3: All data sets used to provide further information about the context covered by geospatial data shall comply with MIM1 and MIM2.

C4: Cities and communities have a consistent and persistent way of describing individual instances of all features, things or entities included in the geospatial data sources.

C4 Requirements:

R4: Unique and persistent identifiers shall be used to identify particular instances of any entity used in data sets (see MIM1: Interlinking Data).

C5: Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) used in data sharing, are easily transformable into a common CRS.

C5 Requirements:

R5: Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) shall comply with standards, and information shall be provided regarding which standard (e.g., EPSG:4326, EPSG:3857 etc.,) is being used. This will include the EPSG number or WGS number, along with information about any variation based on national systems such as the Latvian LKS-92, so that data could be transformed to a common CRS. Note: Within the EU, for geospatial data it is required to use metadata compliant with the INSPIRE Directive. This includes the metadata needed to describe the CRS information.
