3D Spatio-Temporal Data Model for Strata Management

The proliferation of multilevel (vertical) constructions has been a direct response to the scarcity of land available for housing and infrastructure development in urban regions. The increasing number of high-rise buildings, including multi-storey houses and apartments, has become widespread in Malaysia. In the realm of the housing sector, the implementation of proactive management is of utmost importance as it facilitates the preservation of individuals’ daily routines, while concurrently augmenting the efficiency of activities carried out in and around their livings. Inadequate strata management caused a multitude of issues for owners. In contrast to traditional housing, residential strata require a workable framework for proactive management. Traditional data models operate under the premise that data are valid solely in the current moment or at a designated point in time. When alterations, removals, or additions are made to the data contained in a particular database, the state of the database is changed to reflect the revised information. The primary objective of this study is to develop a data model for 3D strata management that takes into account both spatial and temporal considerations. The model includes all the spatial and temporal elements of 3D strata management. It is essential to incorporate both spatial and temporal aspects into the architecture of the data model for efficient 3D strata management and to achieve the goal of proactive strata management.
