Abstract The field of 3D city modelling has attracted a growing interest for representing the city digital twin, providing interactive visualizations of building infrastructures integrated with a wide range of data typically produced in a Smart City environment. This paper presents a method for producing a 3D city model with photorealistic rooftop textures extracted from aerial images, as well as the integration of the 3D city model into an open-source Smart City framework. The proposed solution provides a smart visualization of 3D city entities integrated with a large variety of Smart City data (coming, for instance, from IoT Devices which generate time-series data, heatmaps, geometries and shapes related to traffic flows, bus routes, cycling paths etc.). The proposed method for rooftop detection and alignment follows a deep learning approach based on U-Net architecture, and it has been validated against a manually created ground-truth of 50 buildings scattered uniformly on the covered area. The solution is implemented in the open-source Snap4City Smart City platform. DEMO: The solution will be demonstrated and the readers and conference attendees will be capable to interact and work with the tools by using the links provided. © 2022 IEEE.
