4.5.7. Feature type filter

With the feature types filter, you can restrict the export to one or more features types by enabling the corresponding checkboxes. Only features of the selected type(s) will be exported.

Fig. 4.40 Feature type filter for export operations.

The feature type filter only shows top-level feature types. It will automatically contain feature types from CityGML ADEs if a corresponding ADE extension has been correctly registered with the Importer/Exporter (see Section 5.3).

Note

When exporting city object groups, the following additional rules apply:

1. If only the feature type CityObjectGroup is checked, then all city object groups together with all their group members (independent of their feature types) are exported.
2. If further feature types are selected in addition to CityObjectGroup, then only group members matching those feature types are exported. Of course, all features that match the type selection but are not group members are also exported.
