BIM on GIS platform

Railway slope simulator and Cesium·VWorld BIM on GIS — rainfall, debris flow, slope risk display

Overview

  • Purpose — rainfall risk on railway alignment and slopes; rainfall disaster-prevention support
  • Scope — GIS rainfall and debris-flow inundation results; Cesium slope-analysis results
  • BIM DB — relational database for classifications and attributes and 3D BIM on GIS (Cesium) geometry

Simulator components

QGIS-based slope simulator — preprocess · analysis · postprocess (Cesium upload)

  • Preprocess — contour→DEM, 2D section, WireMesh/FEM/STL, IFC→obj/DEM, GLB wireframe
  • Analysis — debris-flow screening, simplified debris-flow simulation, shallow landslide stability, slope-angle classification, slope stability
  • Postprocess — Cesium API upload, GeoServer 3D BIM on GIS viewer

Analysis models

  • Debris-flow screening — DEM watershed, area, slope, soil-depth score (max 25)
  • Simplified debris-flow simulation — energy-line runout (QGIS 3.44.3)
  • Shallow landslide stability — cell factor of safety (Fs)
  • Slope-angle classification — risk above a critical angle
  • Other — G2D/FVM, limit equilibrium, landslide and slope-collapse stability
  • Reference models — TRIGRS, SHALSTAB, SINMAP
  • Dedicated analysis link — MIDAS, Abaqus results (GLB/OBJ/3D Tiles) to Cesium

Debris flow

Soil, rock, and vegetation mix flowing on steep slopes after rainfall or slope collapse

  • Screening — watershed area, channel slope, soil depth; railway-crossing filter; GeoServer→Cesium
  • Grades — none · concern · risk · very high (4 levels)
  • Simplified simulation — energy-line angle for runout, volume, width
  • Viewer — screening, energy-line hazard, and combined hazard

Cesium BIM on GIS display

Cesium (open-source 3D) and VWorld. Railway BIM geometry, slope risk, and sensors

  • Display — shallow failure, slope angle, debris-flow risk, combined hazard, sensors
  • BIM DB — railway-facility classification linked to attributes, BIM, and slope models
  • CRS — input DEM EPSG:5186 (Korea Central TM)
