Forum Bauinformatik, fbi 2024: 236-243https://hdl.handle.net/11420/49656This paper explores the integration of Geographic Information System (GIS) data within a 3D unbounded space partitioning framework to enrich architectural modeling beyond conventional practices. By investigating how built environment data can be incorporated into a topologically connected 3D model, the study aims to understand its potential impacts on the design and construction phases of a project, as well as the role that integration of adjacent outer space might have, departing from the building scale to parcels, cadastral, and city development plans in the future. Space partitioning, which divides the Euclidean space into distinct nonoverlapping domains, is explored for its potential to improve modeling accuracy and efficiency. By laying the groundwork for the embedding of comprehensive spatial relationships into the modeling framework, the paper seeks to stimulate discourse on the dynamic requirements of construction projects and the transformation of iterative architectural planning practices. It outlines terrain integration as the initial phase of this exploratory and investigative approach to incorporate various scales in 3D modeling for advancement within the Architectural Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Architectural DesignGeometric ModelingGISSpace PartitioningTopologyArts::720: ArchitectureTechnology::625: Road and RailroadArts::711: Area Planning (Civic Art)::711.4: Local Community planning (City Planning)Computer Science, Information and General Works::006: Special computer methodsConference Paper10.15480/882.1354810.15480/882.13548Conference Paper
