GeoPackage
GeoPackage is an open geodata format, based on SQLite. It supports vector features, tile matrix sets, attributes and also extensions. The format can be used for storing certain types of 3D geometry. It is widely adopted an can be used in QGIS, ArcGIS and FME too.
The 3D BAG GeoPackage files contain all the layers.
GeoPackage in 3D in QGIS¶
When opening a 3D BAG file in QGIS (by dragging the file or going to Layer
-> Add Layer
-> Add Vector Layer...
), you can choose which layers to import. In QGIS 3 it is possible to view the 3D layers in the 3D viewer (exact steps may vary between versions):
-
Adjust the
Layer Properties
. Go to the3D View
tab and changeNo Symbols
toSingle Symbol
and adjust the settings to your preference. In older QGIS 3 versions you will find the buttonEnable 3D renderer
instead. -
Go to
View
->3D Map View
to open the 3D viewer.
