What you are building

Parse urban building models in CityJSON format to detect missing spatial metadata and register structured coordination tickets. Generate compliant BCF-XML action issues for project engineering teams.

Urban GIS Coordinator

Ingest CityJSON payload containing CityObjects, vertices, and coordinate transform parameters.

Validate geographic extent and child-parent object topology for registered building installations.

Identify unlinked children and missing height attributes across building entities.

Synthesize BCF issue records with proposed geometry fixes for BIM coordinator review.

Web dashboard showing CityJSON hierarchy tree, issue highlights, and BCF-XML export button.

Download open CityJSON v2.0 sample models from cityjson.org or provide mock json fixtures. Starter examples below are synthetic. They are not downloaded records.

CityJSON Utilizes CityJSON specification section 1 and 2 for CityObjects, attributes, geographicalExtent, and parent-child hierarchy schema.

pydantic-ai, fastapi, pytest. Pydantic AI enforces type-safe schemas across parsed CityJSON structures and target BCF issue payloads. Fast structured JSON generation model with strict schema validation via API or local vLLM.

Submit runnable source, pinned dependencies, setup commands, a working interface, example outputs, and a recorded end-to-end demo. Include tests and an action log.

CityObjects are successfully parsed into typed models with geographicalExtent extracted.

Unlinked 2nd-level entities lacking valid parent references trigger validation tickets.

BCF issue payload emits required topic uuid, priority, and suggested attribute remedy.

```json [ { "input": { "type": "CityJSON", "version": "2.0", "transform": { "scale": [ 1, 1, 1 ], "translate": [ 0, 0, 0 ] }, "CityObjects": { "b-101": { "type": "Building", "geographicalExtent": [ 10, 20, 0, 30, 40, 15 ], "attributes": { "measuredHeight": 15 }, "children": [ "bi-101-a" ] }, "bi-101-a": { "type": "BuildingInstallation", "parents": [ "b-101" ] } }, "vertices": [] }, "expected_output": { "status": "valid", "issues_detected": 0, "bcf_topics": [] } }, { "input": { "type": "CityJSON", "version": "2.0", "transform": { "scale": [ 1, 1, 1 ], "translate": [ 0, 0, 0 ] }, "CityObjects": { "bi-orphan": { "type": "BuildingInstallation", "parents": [] } }, "vertices": [] }, "expected_output": { "status": "invalid", "issues_detected": 1, "bcf_topics": [ { "topic_id": "ERR-TOPOLOGY-01", "description": "2nd-level CityObject bi-orphan lacks required parent building reference", "severity": "critical" } ] } } ] ```

Does not apply modifications directly to production municipal cadastres; produces reviewable issue tickets only. Use mock external writes. Require human review before any real deployment.
