npm install citygml-to-obj

javascript:

var citygml2obj = require("citygml-to-obj");

var options = {
  // Path to CityGML input file
  citygmlPath: "/path/to/some.gml",

  // Path to OBJ output directory
  objPath: "/path/for/obj/output/",

  // Used to project CityGML coords to WGS84
  // This projection is an example for the Berlin CityGML dataset
  proj4def: "+proj=utm +zone=33 +ellps=GRS80 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs",

  // Overwrite existing OBJ files if they already exist
  overwrite: false,

  // API key for the Mapzen Valhalla elevation endpoint
  valhallaKey: "your_api_key"
