Abstract
In example embodiments, techniques are provided for frontend-driven, incremental HLOD sub-tree creation and dynamic generation of tiles. An infrastructure modeling frontend module (e.g., a iModel.js Frontend module) of a frontend application may incrementally create a local HLOD sub-tree, beginning with an initial HLOD sub-tree based on initial metadata provided without tile contents, and refined based on metadata provided with tile contents, from an infrastructure modeling backend module (e.g., a iModel.js Backend module) of a backend application. The local HLOD sub-tree of each infrastructure modeling frontend module may differ based on the individual tiles requested and the tile refinement strategies employed. The infrastructure modeling backend module may not maintain an HLOD tree, and simply generates tiles upon request, serving them and storing them in a tile cache incase they are needed again.
