Developing an Aerial View: Integrating City Engine into Presentations
Track: Communicating with 3D
Authors: Andrew Bernish

The state of Maryland has combined ArcMap & City Engine to enable local governments to visualize potential developments based on zoning, land use, & acreage. By employing a GIS growth model, the state formulated regional build out figures previously only estimated for parcels. Results illustrate in 3-dimensions how lax subdivision regs can alter farms & forests. The presentation gives an appreciation for possibilities of realistic visualization of development patterns employing existing data
