Hi there, I'm currently working on my master thesis which is about urban building energy modelling, I am using the university campus as a case study and just wondering whether it's possible to convert the model from cityengine to citygml format as i don't have technical background. Or, is it better to model simple geometry on Revit and import an IFC file into FME then convert it into citygml format. Many thanks

Hi @khaleel, both ways would work. You can either export the data from CityEngine into a File Geodatabase for example, and import into FME, then map to the CityGML schema. This tutorial of Writing CityGML from FME may give you more details. Alternatively, we also have tutorials on how to translate from IFC to CityGML for different level of details that you may be interested in. Hope this helps a bit.
