Documentation Type describing the abstract superclass for buildings, facilities, etc. Future extensions of CityGML like bridges and tunnels would be modelled as subclasses of _Site. The german translation of site is 'Anlage'. As subclass of _CityObject, a _Site inherits all attributes and relations, in particular an id, names, external references, generic attributes and generalization relations.
