Mapping & 3D · A city in northern Israel
A public GIS and a 3D city scene
A public GIS for browsing the city's layers, and a 3D scene of the city from the coastline to its towers.
Fly-through of a 3D city: buildings, trees, pavements

The challenge
City information shown only on a flat map is hard for the public to read, and high-rise development is easier to explain when you can see the city in volume. For residents and stakeholders to understand what is happening, the city needs a public system that also shows it in 3D.
The solution
We set up a public GIS for the city on ArcGIS with a layer list, and built a 3D scene of the city that users can fly through to look at buildings, streets and the coastline.
The outcome
Residents, developers and city staff browse the city's layers in a web browser, and can switch to 3D to look at buildings and streets in volume.
