Abstract
Methods and systems for three-dimensional asset modeling. A method includes: initializing a georeferenced data structure for each of a plurality of discrete sub-regions of an asset based on a model representing the asset, wherein the model includes a plurality of points representing features of the asset, wherein each georeferenced data structure includes a subset of the plurality of points representing features of a respective sub-region of the plurality of sub-regions; and populating each georeferenced data structure with input data including three-dimensional (3D) modeling data and nonspatial data, wherein each portion of the input data for a georeferenced data structure is used to populate a respective portion of the georeferenced data structure, wherein the nonspatial data used to populate each georeferenced data structure is organized with respect to geometry of the georeferenced data structure and with respect to time of recording of the nonspatial data.
