For realizing data exchange in the context of planning and realization of large infrastructure projects, a comprehensive neutral data model capable to present both semantic as well as geometric aspects is necessary. Right now LandXML is the most dominating standard for the interchange of alignment data. Building Smart, a non-profit organization that is well known for their Industry Foundation Classes (IFC), that provide a full-grown and standardized product model for the design and engineering of buildings started also to develop an IFC based alignment model. Besides this the also the Open Geospatial Consortium started to develop an alignment model called InfraGML.
