Montreal Borough 3D Building Models with Textures

3D LOD2 building models with textures cover several Montreal boroughs. The dataset includes CityGML, 3DM, and GDB formats, with DWG versions lacking textures for some areas. A digital terrain model is also available for a complete territorial representation.

Use Cases

• Generate textured 3D visualizations of urban landscapes using the CityGML and 3DM model files.
• Conduct urban planning analysis on building massing and form with the LOD2 geometric data.
• Integrate the provided digital terrain model (MNT) with building models for complete 3D scene reconstruction.

Strengths

• Models include high-detail LOD2 geometry with applied textures for realistic rendering.
• Data is provided in multiple industry-standard formats including CityGML, GDB, and DWG.
• The dataset is complemented by a digital terrain model for contextual ground representation.

Limitations

• Spatial coverage is limited to only some Montreal boroughs, not the entire city.
• Texture data is missing from the DWG format files, reducing visual fidelity in that version.
• The automated translation of metadata may introduce inaccuracies in the description.
