Vancouver company creates video game-like 3-D virtual model of city - constructconnect.com
GeoSim Cities Inc. has created a three-dimensional virtual model of central Vancouver called Virtual Vancouver. The model allows architects to visualize how their designs will fit in with the surrounding buildings and engage in more detailed conversations with the public. Virtual Vancouver covers downtown Vancouver, the Olympic Village area, and Granville Island. The high-precision and high-resolution model provides important detailed information, saving time and reducing misunderstandings in the approval process. The CEO of GeoSim, Chris Wiesinger, believes that cities will need to use technology like Virtual Vancouver to achieve increased density, equity, livability, and sustainability. The next iteration of 3D modeling is virtual reality glasses. AB Scale Models, a Vancouver-based company, builds physical 3D models for marketing and design purposes.
