Preferred term

three-dimensional data models  

Definition

  • Three-dimensional (3D) data models focus on portraying the third dimension of physical objects and phenomena through the integration of semantic, geometric, and spatial data relationships. Fundamentally, this is a perspective different from the static, 2D or bird's-eye perspective on the world in traditional spatial data modeling.
