3D visualisation

Using imagery in complex spatial decision making processes is becoming of increasing importance. The imagery has to be presented to non-specialists, in an understandable and accessible way.

The solution in these cases is to use the technique of 3D visualisation. It has proven to be the best suitable tool for such projects.

To obtain a 3D view a combination is made from a digital terrain model and 3D models of man-made objects like buildings, bridges and other significant objects.

The 3D buildings and other objects are derived from stereo imagery with medium or very high overlaps in order to get a clear view of the facades leading towards photorealistic viewing of land- and cityscapes.

Key features:

  1. Captured images include every commercial and residential building plus all other man-made objects (water towers, bridges) above 50 square meters; major architectural details of every building are visible including setbacks, plinths and rooftop objects greater than 2 cubic meters

  2. Height, length, width, distance and elevation is measured for all buildings

  3. Digital aerial imagery from 2.5 cm to 50 cm

  4. Local digital terrain model (DTM)

  5. Building overlays with vector and raster data layers from third-party information systems

  6. 3D bundled with ortho-rectified imagery

  7. Rapid turnaround, high volume generation capability
