Abstract:
This paper presents the methods and initial results of a study at the Swedish Defence Research Agency in 2012,aiming at investigating various techniques for binding a complex XML schema, such as the OGC’s CityGML schema, to a database. This form of binding technique performs a mapping between XML objects and database objects thereby enabling the use of relational databases for update and input/output of customized CityGML models. The results so far indicate that this might be possible with today's framework but not without an undesirable work effort. Also, the lack of documentation makes this work even harder. Follow-on work is planned for 2013 and will provide a basis for an assessment of the frameworks. In this paper, we propose a method to evaluate such frameworks.
