## GeoData Toolkit This repository converts DGM1 elevation tiles into Unity-ready 16-bit PNG heightmaps and a placement manifest. It relies on GDAL for mosaicking, resampling, and scaling to UInt16 ranges Unity expects. ### Prerequisites - `uv` installed. Use Python 3.10–3.12 for now (`triangle2` from `cjio[export]` has no CPython 3.13 wheels). - Optional: Java 17+ if you want to experiment with the bundled `citygml-tools` utilities (not needed for heightmaps/orthophotos). ### Environment setup (uv) - Install deps (creates `.venv` if missing): `uv sync`. You can skip manual activation by prefixing commands with `uv run ...`; if you prefer activation, run `uv venv && source .venv/bin/activate`. - `uv run ` executes with the project environment (e.g., `uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --setup`). Use `--directory` to target another path if needed; `--offline` disables network fetches. - If wheels fail to resolve, ensure system GDAL is present (e.g., `brew install gdal` or `apt-get install gdal-bin libgdal-dev`), then rerun `uv sync`. - Create the default directory tree and config: `uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --setup` (or `bash scripts/setup_dirs.sh` for directories only). ### Repository Layout - `raw/` — working inputs (not versioned): `raw/dgm1/`, `raw/dop20/jp2/`, `raw/citygml/lod1/`, `raw/citygml/lod2/`. - `archive/` — offline storage for untouched downloads (e.g., zipped DOP/CityGML tiles, dop20 filelist). - `work/` — intermediates such as `dgm.vrt` and `_tmp.tif` files; safe to delete/regenerate. - `export_unity/height_png16/` — final 16-bit PNG heightmaps for Unity import. - `export_unity/tile_index.csv` — manifest mapping tile IDs to world bounds and global min/max used for scaling; built during heightmap export and required by orthophotos. - `export_unity/ortho_jpg/` — cropped orthophoto tiles aligned to the terrain grid (JPEG + worldfiles). - `geodata_to_unity.py` — main CLI (uses `geodata_pipeline/` library modules). - `scripts/` — helpers to create the directory tree and fetch DOP20 inputs. - `geodata_config.json` — generated config (see `geodata_config.example.json` for defaults). - `AGENTS.md` — contributor guide. ### Quick Start 1. Activate the uv venv (`source .venv/bin/activate`) or prefix commands with `uv run`. 2. Initialize config + directories: `uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --setup`. 3. Export assets (builds VRTs automatically if missing): ```bash uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --export all # heightmaps only: uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --export heightmap # textures only: uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --export textures ``` 4. Import the PNGs into Unity Terrains using `tile_index.csv` for placement and consistent height scaling (0–65535). ### How the export works - Heightmaps: the pipeline builds `work/dgm.vrt` from all `raw/dgm1/*.tif`, computes a global min/max once, and warps each tile footprint to `heightmap.out_res` with `srcNodata=-9999` and `dstNodata` set to the global min. PNGs are scaled to `[0, 65535]` with worldfiles and listed in `export_unity/tile_index.csv`. - Orthophotos: `work/dop.vrt` is built from `raw/dop20/jp2/*.jp2`; the manifest drives the cropping bounds. JPEG tiles are written to `export_unity/ortho_jpg/` with matching `.jgw` worldfiles. If the manifest is missing, the orthophoto export aborts—run the heightmap export first or use `--export all`. - Archives: `--build-from-archive` expands every `*.zip` under `archive/*` into the matching `raw/*` directories and copies `archive/dop20/filelist.txt` next to `raw/dop20/` for the downloader. - Cleanup: temporary `_tmp.tif` and GDAL aux XML files under `work/` and `raw/dgm1/` are removed at the end of the heightmap export; avoid storing non-GDAL metadata in those folders. ### Key Commands - Refresh VRT: `gdalbuildvrt work/dgm.vrt raw/dgm1/*.tif` - Run export pipeline: `uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --export all` - Inspect an output tile: `gdalinfo export_unity/height_png16/.png | head` - Override config paths: use `--config `, `--raw-dgm1-path `, `--raw-dop20-path `. - Build raws from archives: `uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --build-from-archive --export all` (unzips `archive/*`; dop20 filelist stays in `archive/dop20/` for the downloader). - Rebuild VRTs after moving data: add `--force-vrt`. ### Workflow Notes - The pipeline computes a global min/max from the VRT to scale all tiles consistently; adjust `heightmap.out_res` or `heightmap.resample` in `geodata_config.json` if your AOI or target resolution changes. - `_tmp.tif` files in `work/` are transient; you can delete `work/` to force a clean rebuild. - Keep file names stable to avoid churn in Unity scenes; re-exports overwrite in place. - Large raw datasets are intentionally excluded from version control—document download sources or scripts instead of committing data. - Additional inputs: download helper lives in `scripts/dlscript_dop20.sh` and pulls JP2/J2W/XML orthophotos listed in `archive/dop20/filelist.txt` (one URL per line); `archive/` can hold zipped 3D building tiles for future use. - Handoff to Unity: copy/sync `export_unity/height_png16/` and `export_unity/tile_index.csv` into `DTrierFlood/Assets/GeoData/` before running the Unity-side importer. Keep `heightmap.out_res` aligned with the importer’s expected resolution (currently 1025). ### Orthophotos (textures) 1. Ensure DOP assets are present in `raw/dop20/jp2/`, `raw/dop20/j2w/`, and `raw/dop20/meta/`; use `scripts/dlscript_dop20.sh` to fetch JP2/J2W/XML entries listed in `archive/dop20/filelist.txt` (one URL per line). 2. From `GeoData/`, run: ```bash uv run python geodata_to_unity.py --export textures ``` This builds `work/dop.vrt` if missing and writes `export_unity/ortho_jpg/.jpg` + `.jgw` aligned to `tile_index.csv`. - If you see `Computed -srcwin ... falls partially outside source raster extent` warnings, the DOP coverage is slightly smaller than the tile footprint; edge pixels will be filled with NoData/zeros. Add adjacent JP2s or shrink the requested window if you need to avoid the warning. - The download script relies on a Linux/OpenSSL toolchain with system CA bundle at `/etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt`; it builds a trust chain by fetching the geobasis intermediate. macOS/Windows users should either provide a combined CA via `CURL_CA_BUNDLE` or download with a browser/wget and place files manually. - Place companion `.j2w` and `.xml` files under `raw/dop20/j2w/` and `raw/dop20/meta/` if available; they are not required for the VRT but help provenance. ### Buildings LoD2 CityGML tiles can be converted to GLB per tile while preserving roof/wall semantics: 1. CityGML → CityJSON: ```bash for f in raw/citygml/lod2/*.gml; do base="$(basename "$f" .gml)" tools/citygml-tools-2.4.0/citygml-tools to-cityjson "$f" \ -o "work/cityjson/${base}.city.json" done ``` 2. Clean + triangulate: ```bash for f in work/cityjson/*.city.json; do base="$(basename "$f" .city.json)" input_json="$f/$base.json" # citygml-tools writes a .json inside the .city.json folder uv run cjio --ignore_duplicate_keys "$input_json" upgrade triangulate vertices_clean \ save "work/cityjson_tri/${base}.tri.city.json" done ``` If cjio still complains about duplicate object IDs, inspect the source GML; `--ignore_duplicate_keys` tells cjio to keep the last occurrence. 3. Split roof/wall semantics without reindexing vertices: `uv run python scripts/split_semantics.py` 4. Export GLBs (tile-local coords; place with `export_unity/tile_index.csv`): ```bash for f in work/cityjson_tri/*.tri.city.json; do base="$(basename "$f" .tri.city.json)" uv run cjio "$f" export --format glb "export_unity/buildings_glb/${base}.glb" done for f in work/cityjson_split/*.roof.city.json; do base="$(basename "$f" .roof.city.json)" uv run cjio "$f" export --format glb "export_unity/buildings_glb_split/${base}_roof.glb" done for f in work/cityjson_split/*.wall.city.json; do base="$(basename "$f" .wall.city.json)" uv run cjio "$f" export --format glb "export_unity/buildings_glb_split/${base}_wall.glb" done ``` 5. Confirm intermediates/GLBs exist: `uv run python scripts/verify_pipeline.py --mode both` ### Troubleshooting - Empty raw directories cause VRT creation to fail fast (`No sources available to build VRT`); populate inputs or adjust `--raw-*` overrides. - If you moved raw data or deleted `work/`, add `--force-vrt` to rebuild VRTs before exporting. - Orthophoto export warnings like `Computed -srcwin ... falls partially outside source raster extent` indicate coverage gaps; add neighboring JP2s or accept the NoData edge fill. - If GDAL Python bindings are missing, install system GDAL first and re-run `uv sync` so `osgeo` imports succeed.
