Interactive data exploration of large scale urban scenarios using mobile devices

In this work, we present an approach how mobile devices such as iPhone and iPad can leverage the interactive handling of constructions and built infrastructure. Today, large sets of digital product model information are available and the amount is still growing rapidly. In order to benefit from the entirety of this information w. r. t. insight, focussing on single entities separately is not sufficient. Our approach is capable of storing, handling, and delivering access to vast amounts of constructions and built infrastructure while user interaction can still happen in real time. As a sample application, a real time visualisation with interaction using mobile devices for navigation, construction assembly, and product model modification is presented.
