Authors: LUZ ANGELA ROCHA SALAMANCA, Fabian Mejía

Bogotá, capital of Colombia, in the past decade has improved its digital city status, by the increasing use of information technology and communications, in both administrative and technical processes inside the city. The result of this process was a new model of the city, where spatial information is an important element in the decision -making process.

At the same time has been converted, in the country's main tourist destination because it has cultural activities, scientific and academic events, and hosting the important cultural international events. The city also offers a wide variety of restaurants of national and international food, entertainment venues, clubs, parks, museums and shopping centers.

The prototype application shows how the 3D city model techniques, support planning activities in order to enable Bogota as a tourist city, not only for national visitors but also for foreigners.
