The 3D City Database Importer/Exporter is a Java based front-end for the 3D City Database. It allows for high-performance loading and extracting 3D city model data.
- Full support for CityGML versions 2.0.0 and 1.0.0
- Support for Oracle Spatial, Oracle Locator, and PostGIS
- Reading/writing CityGML instance documents of arbitrary file size
- Export of KML/COLLADA/glTF models including tiling schemas for visualization and interactive exploration of large city models in Digital Earth Browsers, 3D GIS, and computer graphics software
- Generic KML information balloons
- Export of thematic object data into tables. Supported data formats are CSV and Microsoft Excel
- Resolving and preservation of forward and backwards XLinks in CityGML datasets
- Full support of 3D Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) and 3D coordinate transformations; support for user-defined CRS
- Coordinate transformations for CityGML exports

OGC CityGML is an open data model and XML-based format for the storage and exchange of semantic 3D city models. It is an application schema for the Geography Markup Language version 3.1.1 (GML3), the extendible international standard for spatial data exchange issued by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and the ISO TC211. The aim of the development of CityGML is to reach a common definition of the basic entities, attributes, and relations of a 3D city model.
CityGML is an international OGC standard and can be used free of charge.
