Hi everybody. Yes, Wiktor get it right. I'll just add a few thoughts:

If models binded to osm objects via tags - it's rather easy to get statistics, using Overpass or some kind of diff listener bot. But as for me it's not a number one priority. Most difficult part is: There is also the issue of putting the object on the map - what > physical size object has, and what's the orientation.

As a rule, for architectural models 1unit = 1meter. Orientation and matching model coordinates origin with osm object coordinates much more difficult. I have a small propozal http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation_3D:Model but all interesting things about it were said here http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=28248 As I think after this conversation, there is no need to use relation, or at least new relation. Orientation could be specified on osm object via tag 3d:model:azimuth and as fallback (if tag is missed) could be calculated as orientation of longest edge of bounding box. So the hardest thing is origin. For 3d models 0 point of coordinates might be located at: 1. the center of model 2. weighted center of model 3. at the corner of a model (to have positive values along all axises) So first what we need to do is to choose what we use as an origin of the osm objects. (I think analog of postgis ST_PointOnSurface should be good enough for this purpose http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/76498/how-is-st-pointonsurface-calculated ). Second, we need a tool, which allows user to move zero point of a model using 3d lib application interface. It might be semitransparent model footprint above osm background. Such tool will allows user to check and edit azimuth and model zero-point at once. 2015-03-25 3:36 GMT+05:00 Peter Barth <osm-p...@won2.de>: > Hi Kristijan, > > sorry for the late reply.
