Overview

The 3D Portrayal Service Standard is a geospatial 3D content delivery implementation specification. It focuses on what is to be delivered in which manner to enable interoperable 3D portrayal.

It does not define or endorse particular content transmission formats, but specifies how geospatial 3D content is described, selected, and delivered. It does not prescribe how aforementioned content is to be organized and represented, but provides a framework to determine whether 3D content is interoperable at the content representation level. More details are available in Design of this standard.
