Paper
Virtual Pasadena: Development of a 3D City
Track: State and Local Government
Authors: Brian Sims, Kayla Folkins

The City of Pasadena recently had over 14,000 architecturally detailed, photo textured, 3D models built. The City is using the models for economic development purposes, aid in the City's General Plan update, presentations to the Planning Commission and City Council, event planning (Rose Bowl, Rose Parade, etc.), and public safety purposes.

This presentation will discuss:
- The implementation of the data into the City's enterprise GIS, including 3D data formats used, software used, in-house training programs, and data maintenance practices;
- How the data are deployed for use by the City and the public;
- Lessons learned thus far
- Implementation issues;
- Ongoing issues; and
- Future plans
