Abstract
An overview of data models suitable for smart cities is given. CityGML and \(G\)-maps implicitly model the underlying combinatorial structure, whereas topological databases make this structure explicit. This combinatorial structure is the basis for topological queries, and topological consistency of such data models allows for correct answers to topological queries. A precise definition of topological consistency in the two-dimensional case is given and an application to data models is discussed.
