“…• We expect that spatial analyses and use cases that are focused on 2D or 2.5D will evolve to take advantage of 3D city models when the case is appropriate (e.g., in logistics, for optimising delivery routes to customers [403]). …”

In the last decades, 3D city models appear to have been predominantly used for visualisation; however, today they are being increasingly employed in a number of domains and for a large range of tasks beyond visualisation. In this paper, we seek to understand and document the state of the art regarding the utilisation of 3D city models across multiple domains based on a comprehensive literature study including hundreds of research papers, technical reports and online resources. A challenge in a study such as ours is that the ways in which 3D city models are used cannot be readily listed due to fuzziness, terminological ambiguity, unclear added-value of 3D geoinformation in some instances, and absence of technical information. To address this challenge, we delineate a hierarchical terminology (spatial operations, use cases, applications), and develop a theoretical reasoning to segment and categorise the diverse uses of 3D city models. Following this framework, we provide a list of identified use cases of 3D city models (with a description of each), and their applications. Our study demonstrates that 3D city models are employed in at least 29 use cases that are a part of more than 100 applications. The classified inventory could be useful for scientists as well as stakeholders in the geospatial industry, such as companies and national mapping agencies, as it may serve as a reference document to better position their operations, design product portfolios, and to better understand the market.

“…As fuel cost rises, saving in travelling cost is expected to further increase. The optimization component could be further incorporated into intelligent transportation systems with route guidance system to improve the operational efficiency (Jung et al, 2006). Further interesting research directions include modelling the outbound transportation of the lighter resource by the heavier resource and developing heuristics for solving large problems efficiently, when the IP model requires large computational resource.…”

In today's highly competitive business environment, most companies try to manage their logistics function strategically to satisfy their orders as cost-effectively as possible and maximize their present and future profits. In this environment, logistics process visibility is essential to companies wishing to competently track components, parts, or products in transit from the original suppliers to the final destinations. Thus, it is important to provide instantly and easily recognizable information about such visibility to all stakeholders, especially customers. To ensure a high-level geographical visibility of the logistics processes, in this paper, we propose a way of implementing a GIS-based logistics process monitoring environment and of integrating a performer's work processing environment on the monitoring system. Additionally, to provide more abundant monitoring information, we describe a procedure for creating and processing various monitoring information, which are represented as ECA rules in this work processing environment. Therefore, it is possible to provide intuitive and visible monitoring information regarding the logistics process and resource elements.

I. IntroductionIn today's highly competitive environment, many companies are aiming to gain a share of the global market and take advantage of higher production and sourcing efficiencies. A key determinant of business performance nowadays is the role of the "logistics function" in ensuring a smooth flow of the materials, products, and information throughout a company's supply chains [1]. Most businesses aim to provide their customers with products or services in an effective and timely manner. Therefore, logistics is very important to business. In logistics systems, items are produced at one or more factories, shipped to warehouses for intermediate storage, and then shipped to retailers or customers [2].According to IBM Center, in today's world, by improving the visibility of inventories, asset management, and information, logistics has emerged as a key cost control area in many organizations' supply chain operations. One of the primary purposes to ensure such visibility is to improve the internal decision-making ability and operational performance. Through ensuring the visibility from the supplier to the end user, greater visibility can also provide a clearer view of their entire supply chain [3]. More recently, ...
