FAQ
GML to WRL Conversion
What are GML files?
GML (Geography Markup Language) is an XML-based language for describing geographic features, developed by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and adopted as the international standard ISO 19136. A GML file is readable text in which every object on a map, such as a building, a road, a lake, or a boundary, is written down together with its shape and its attributes, for example a name, a type, or a population. The language is a toolbox rather than a fixed list of objects: communities and organizations define their own application schemas on top of it, which is how national mapping data, cadastral records, and the data of 3D city models are exchanged. GML is also the standard way for web map services to return features.
What are WRL files?
The WRL file format (commonly known as VRML, Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is a standard file format for representing 3D interactive vector graphics and textures, designed particularly for the early World Wide Web. Files using this format typically carry the .wrl extension.
