When the Corpus Christi Downtown Management District (DMD) decided to use 3D visualization to help promote and plan its revitalization program, it probably did not know that it would turn into a case study for one of the most significant movements in city planning today, GeoDesign. ?We were seeking a parallel path,? shares Tray Bates, Former Corpus Christi Association of Realtors Chairman and DMD Vice Chair. ?This successful program is a great example of how governmental agencies and the private sector can work together to reach a mutually beneficial goal that enhances business while beautifying the area for local citizens,? notes CyberCity 3D CEO Kevin DeVito. The completed model totals 12,500 individually modeled structures including all roof details; each roof polygon features a broad range of automated measurements such as line-of-site and building footprint locations--all with six-inch accuracy. The 3D pilot project in Corpus Christi is growing, and has all the signs of burgeoning into a city-wide sustainability program as stakeholders see how this pioneering deployment of 3D GIS and GeoDesign have the ability to enhance key city functions. There are so many applications: visual aids, utility master planning, FEMA information, green data, rooftops for solar and runoff statistics. Based in southern California, the Company?s range of cutting-edge products and services include high resolution 3D buildings, solar roof measurements, enhanced 3D building footprints, 3D models for all Esri applications, 2D/3D mobile maps, 3D building measurement information, automatic photo-texturing processes, and an off-the-shelf city model library.
