Description

CityEngine is a cutting-edge 3D modeling application that enables the rapid creation of expansive, interactive urban landscapes more efficiently than conventional modeling methods. The cities you design with CityEngine can reflect actual geographical information system (GIS) data or represent an imaginative urban setting from any time period. Instead of constructing each building separately, you can generate a large-scale city model in one go. CityEngine facilitates quick modifications to architectural styles or various aspects of your city, allowing you to explore numerous design options effortlessly. Additionally, you can produce 3D models to illustrate proposed modifications and alternative designs effectively. Your designs can be guided by 3D models that reflect land use regulations and other relevant conditions. You can easily present various design options to your team or stakeholders, soliciting valuable feedback. CityEngine seamlessly fits into your existing workflow, enabling you to incorporate key buildings or other assets to create a comprehensive 3D environment around them. You can also export your work back into high-end visualization tools or game engines for further refinement and presentation. This powerful software not only enhances creativity but also streamlines collaboration among project participants.

Description

Simplex 3D is an advanced 3D reality-planning platform that enables professionals to visualize, strategize, and construct within precise urban and infrastructural frameworks. It features smooth 360° navigation across city landscapes with a remarkable resolution of up to 3 cm-per-pixel, integrating various data types such as zoning, transportation, financial, and infrastructure information for a thorough understanding of the situation. Users have the capability to import intricate architectural CAD or BIM models from software like Revit or SketchUp, create new designs, simulate different scenarios regarding height, shadows, and visibility, and assess their plans in realistic settings. The platform includes a comprehensive collaboration workspace, allowing project participants to exchange views, bookmarks, comments, and presentations all in one cohesive environment, which enhances the efficiency of approval processes and minimizes discrepancies. Furthermore, Simplex 3D is equipped with engineering-grade measurement tools, split-screen comparisons of past and future projections, and real-time data overlays, thereby removing ambiguity and facilitating informed decision-making. This innovative approach not only optimizes project planning but also encourages teamwork and enhances communication among stakeholders.
