INTEGRATING SCALE AND SPACE IN 3D CITY MODELS 1

This paper presents the problem of the current separate treatment of levels of detail in city models. We propose a solution, detail the main principles, and present our initial results on the approach. We conclude with work in progress and explain the benefits of our approach.
