Place

What is a Place ?

A Place is the entity used to link to 3D Model to the Relational one. The reference location of a Place on the Map:

• There is a Place for each Building
• There is a Place for each Space
• A Place can be created on a Floor
• A Place can be created on the Site

Main Attributes (not exhaustive)

• id (int)
• name (string):
  • If its associated to a Building, it will be the building#name
  • If its associated to a Space, it will be the space#name
  • Otherwise it’s customizable
• floor_id (int): The floor 3D identifier, if the place is located on the site then it will be “-1” by convention.
• shape_id (int|null): The Space#id if it’s associated to a Space, otherwise null
• building_id (int|null): The Building#id if it’s associated to a Building, otherwise null
• path_node_id (int|null): The checkpoint or floor access id otherwise null, otherwise null
• position (object): The place position relative to the Building (associated to a building), Space (associated to a Space), Floor (on a Floor) or Site (on the Site):
  • position.x (float): The x coordinate
  • position.y (float): The y coordinate
  • position.z (float): The z coordinate

Relationships

• pois: List of all Pois associated to that Place, meaning which are located on that Place.
• custom_objects: A list of CustomObject, which could be a Picto or a Label, used to add visual information on the Map .
• site: The site that the map belongs to

Currently multiple CustomObject feature is not supported.

Cascade Operations

• Removing the Place will:
  • Cascade to associated CustomObjects
• Un-associating a Poi will:
  • Remove the associated CustomObject if and only if the CustomObject is associated to the Poi.
