FAQ: CityJSON for Sölvesborg
Which layers are included in the 3D model?
Only building geometry. Roads, landuse, water, and boundaries are not included in the 3D scene.
Is terrain relief included?
No, buildings sit on a flat base. Surface relief is available in the Terrain Mesh format.
How is it different from CityGML?
CityJSON is a compact JSON encoding of CityGML. Under 10% the size, easier to parse.
Can I open it in QGIS?
Yes, QGIS 3.x supports CityJSON via the 3D View.
Why are the coordinates written as integers?
That is how the format works: vertices are stored as integers, and the real meters come from multiplying by the factor in the transform block — one step equals a millimeter. Together with vertex deduplication this noticeably shrinks the file, and the precision does not suffer.
