Engineers

Scenario: An engineering client, a real estate developer is proposing a new high-rise building in a dense urban area.

Use Case:

  • Public Engagement: Create compelling visualizations of the proposed project, helping residents understand the benefits and tradeoffs, fostering community support.
  • Shadow Studies: Accurately simulate how the new building casts shadows at different times of the day and throughout the year, helping to optimize design and address potential concerns.
  • Utility Mapping: Overlay existing underground utility lines, pinpointing potential conflicts and streamlining coordination with utility companies prior to construction.
  • Sightline Analysis: Assess potential view obstructions for surrounding buildings, facilitating communication and potential design adjustments to minimize impact.
  • Construction Staging: Plan out construction logistics and equipment placement within the 3D environment, minimizing disruption to the surrounding area.

Real Estate

Scenario: A high-profile commercial real estate broker is representing a major developer looking to purchase a large parcel of land in a rapidly revitalizing urban district. .

Use Case:

  • Immersive Visualization:

    • The broker imports the site plans and creates a custom 3D model of the proposed mixed-use development.
    • Using Urban Vision's 3D cityscape, they place the model directly into the existing urban environment, enabling the developer to visualize the project in context.
    • They conduct a virtual walkthrough, showcasing street-level views, architectural details, and how the development fits within the current cityscape.

  • Data Integration:

    • The broker overlays key data layers onto the 3D model:
      • Zoning information to ensure compliance and highlight potential opportunities.
      • Traffic patterns to analyze accessibility and potential customer flow.
      • Demographics and nearby points of interest to demonstrate market demand.
      • Historical building permit data to understand neighborhood development trends.

  • Collaboration & Storytelling:

    • The broker invites the developer, potential investors, and local stakeholders to a virtual presentation using Urban Vision's shared platform.
    • They use the 3D environment to tell a compelling story:
      • Highlight the project's potential to enhance walkability and boost foot traffic for surrounding businesses.
      • Showcase how the design complements existing architecture or introduces a unique signature element.
      • Address concerns about parking or traffic impact using visuals and data.

Government/Municipal

Scenario: A city is experiencing unprecedented population growth and development.

Use Case:

  • Base 3D cityscape: The city imports an existing 3D model of the area, including buildings, streets, and the waterfront.
  • Data Overlays:
    • Zoning regulations and historic landmark designations
    • Traffic patterns and pedestrian flow
    • Current occupancy and property values
  • Custom Building Models: Developers submit 3D models of proposed mixed-use buildings, hotels, and public spaces. These are placed directly into the city model.
  • Overlay zoning regulations: Visualize how current zoning impacts land use and potential development areas.
  • Enhanced collaboration: Share the 3D platform with stakeholders, from planners to public interest groups, for streamlined communication.

Security

Scenario: Proactive Security Planning for a Major Public Event

Use Case:

  • Base Layer: An ultra-realistic 3D model of the downtown area is built, incorporating street layouts, buildings, and existing infrastructure (lighting, cameras, etc.).
  • Data Integration:
    • Historical crime data is overlaid, pinpointing hotspots for extra attention.
    • Crowd simulation models, based on estimated attendance, predict traffic flow and potential bottlenecks.
    • Live feeds from existing security cameras can be integrated directly.
    • Social media sentiment analysis can potentially highlight areas of brewing tension.
  • Planning & Simulation:
    • Security teams visualize the optimal placement of additional cameras, barriers, and personnel.
    • Potential routes for emergency vehicles, crowd control, and evacuations are mapped directly onto the 3D model.
    • Incident scenarios can be simulated within the platform, allowing the team to test and refine response plans.
