Autodesk Scene Export File
Developed by Autodesk for 3D Studio, the ASCII based ASE format stores comprehensive 3D scene data, including polygonal meshes, material definitions, animation keys, and lighting parameters. As a human-readable text format, it enables manual editing while maintaining compatibility with legacy 3D workflows.
Key Features of ASE
- Material Data Storage: ASE files store material information including colors, textures, and shaders used in 3D scenes.
- Hierarchical Scene Structure: ASE supports parent-child relationships between objects for organizing complex 3D scenes.
- Transform and Pivot Data: Object transformations like position, rotation, scale, and pivot points are stored.
- No Binary Compression: Being text-based, ASE files do not include any binary compression, which makes them larger in size.
ASE File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application leverage the cross-platform open asset import library to seamlessly read, import, and convert ASE files into a variety of 3D formats—including OFF, PLY, 3DM, and SKP - while preserving critical data such as textures, colors, and UV coordinates. This ensures accurate transitions from legacy 3D Studio scenes to modern workflows without losing essential visual or structural details.

CityJSON (3D City Model) File
The CityJSON file format is a modern, JSON-based (JavaScript Object Notation) standard designed for storing and exchanging 3D city models. It efficiently encodes buildings, roads, bridges, urban furniture, and other city objects, offering strong support for textures, semantics, and detailed metadata. CityJSON is a lightweight alternative to CityGML, optimized for simplicity, web integration, and high-performance applications.
Key Features of CityJSON Files
- JSON Simplicity: CityJSON files are lightweight, human-readable, and easily parsed by common programming languages, avoiding the complexity of XML structures like in CityGML.
- Semantic Data: Preserves rich metadata, including building heights, roof shapes, material classifications, and road types, enhancing 3D GIS and urban analysis.
- LOD (Level of Detail) Support: Manages multiple levels of detail (LOD1 through LOD4) to suit diverse visualization, simulation, and analysis needs.
- Web-Friendly Format: Perfect for 3D web visualization and integration with JavaScript libraries like Cesium and Three.js.
- Open and Extensible: Developed by the 3D Geoinformation Group (Delft University of Technology), CityJSON is an open standard that promotes interoperability and innovation.
- File Extension Note: Both CityJSON and GeoJSON use the .json extension - ensure you verify the file structure before processing to avoid errors.
CityJSON File Conversion Made Easy
With Autoconverter and Automesher Application, you can seamlessly import, export, and convert CityJSON files into formats like STL, OBJ, SKP (SketchUp), and 3DS. Our tools preserve geometric precision and semantic information, making it easy to integrate 3D city models into your CAD, GIS, and 3D visualization workflows.
