Conversion of Indoor Databases
With WallMan it is possible to convert databases from many common database formats to the WinProp format.
- WinProp indoor building data ASCII (.ida)
- AutoCAD file format (.dwg, .dxf)
- Autodesk 3ds Max File Format (.3ds)
- Autodesk Filmbox File format (.fbx)
- Blender File Format (.blend)
- COLLADA (.dae)
- Facet file format (.fac)
- Geography Markup Language (.gml)
- CityGML (.gml, .citygml
- GL Transmission Format (.gltf, .glb)
- Nastran file format (.nas)
- Stereolithography file format (.stl) (Binary)
- Stereolithography file format (.stl) (ASCII)
- Stereolithography file format (.stl) (ASCII/Binary)
- Wavefront file format (.obj)
- OpenDRIVE (.xodr)
Convert Vector Database from OpenDRIVE Format
OpenDRIVE® is an open file format specification that is used to to describe large and complex road networks. WallMan offers the possibility to convert OpenDRIVE to an indoor vector database (.idb file). Although the road geometry is of course out of doors, WinProp uses the term “indoor” for any geometry that has significant geometrical freedom, which is the case for road networks from OpenDRIVE.
- Convertion method
-
-
- Outline
- This conversion mode creates objects from the contour of the road lanes. This mode does not take into account the elevation profile of the roads, if any (i.e., it makes them flat).
-
- Mesh
- This conversion mode creates triangular objects for the road lanes. This approach takes into account the elevation profile of the roads. The resulting database will contain more walls than the outline approach.
-
- Auto
- This conversion mode converts planar roads with the outline method and uses the mesh method for roads with elevation profiles.
-
- Discretization step
- The minimum discretization length in meters. Larger triangles will be created where appropriate. In the image above, a minimum discretization step of 2 m was specified by the user and was applied by the converter in the curves.
