geomapi 1.0.0

A standard library to manage geomatic data

GEOMAPI

This innovative toolbox, developped by KU Leuven Geomatics, jointly processes close-range sensing resources (point clouds, images) and BIM models for the AEC industry. More specifically, we combine semantic web technologies with state-of-the-art open source geomatics APIs to process and analyse big data in construction applications.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install geomapi as a user.

conda create --name geomapi_user python=3.11
pip install geomapi

Or as a developer, install the dependencies from the root folder through the command line.

pip install -r requirements.txt
