3D VR City Projects

 |
3D VR Parramatta CBD Model
 |
| Client: Parramatta City Council, NSW |
Having had some experience with the technology, Parramatta City Council
turned to Dd3D Works to build a new 3D VR model of the Parramatta CBD
that would have the accuracy and presentation quality to enable the
system to be capable of withstanding scrutiny in the NSW Land and
Environment Court.
|
Mornington Activity Centre 3D VR Model
 |
 |
| Client: Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, VIC |
To assist Council meet the needs of ever-increasing development
pressure in the area, Dd3D Works constructed an accurate and very
realistic 3D VR model of the Mornington Activity Centre incorporating
the Council's new Structure Plan. It is used in-house by the Council
for strategic planning and as part of the DA assessment process.

3D VR Gosford CBD Model
 |
 |
| Client: Gosford City Council, NSW |
Five years of development applications have passed through this
powerful planning tool. Each is assessed in a survey accurate real-time
virtual environment providing accurate shadows for any time and date of
the year. A living city platform which shows both the growth and future
of Gosford. This award winning system set the standard for all future
city planning models.

3D VR transportation projects

 |
M7 Public Consultation Project
 |
| Client: Roads and Traffic Authority Operations (RTA) |
This is a true simulation model and includes moving vehicles, working
lights and the potential for traffic flow analysis. The ability to
assess road signage, urban design treatments and staged landscape
growth makes this an extremely powerful design review platform. Perhaps
the most important aspect of the system is the ability to engage with
the public living adjacent to the proposed motorway, on a one-to–one
basis.

Great Western Highway, Lawson NSW
 |
| Client: Roads and Traffic Authority Operations (RTA) |
This model was used to assess the highway concept design and the visual
impact of alternative twin bridge types (a Super T and a Balanced
Cantilever design). It was acknowledged that the model acted as a very
useful tool to test ideas and as a result of the project there has been
a revision of both the highway and railway alignments.

Other significant 3D modelling projects

Rozelle Bay Master Precinct Master Plan - Sydney
 |
 |
| Client: NSW Maritime Authority |
“ Following
successful delivery of a conceptual 3D model of the Rozelle Bay
Masterplan site NSW, Maritime Authority had no hesitation in
re-engaging Dd3D Works to create a more detailed model incorporating DA
approved structures for public exhibition. The resulting 3D model
exceeded expectations and provided very realistic animations and views
which were of immense public benefit."
- Dennis Buttigieg, Manager, Survey and Spatial Information, NSW Maritime Authority
This extensive 3D model offers the ability to assess impacts on the
surrounding community and the interaction of the 10 combined DA
approved structures. Four separate paths through the site were defined
for both camera and target and a 5min 40sec Video for Windows (avi) in
960x640 pixel resolution was produced for public exhibition.

The National Capital Authority's 3D Planning Model – Canberra
 |
 |
| Client: National Capital Authority |
This 3D model encompasses all the buildings and structures within the
federally owned land in Canberra. It covers the entire length of Lake
Burley Griffin from Canberra Airport to Scrivener Dam. This model is
used to protect view corridors and assess changes as well as event
planning. Virtual reality finishes have been added to all significant
buildings in the Parliamentary triangle and true species tree coverage
has been included in the central area.

3D Model from Argyle St Portal to
Wynyard
Station
 |
| Client: State Rail – City Underground |
Constructed from original drawings, survey and laser profiles to
engineering accuracy. The project included the new signaling equipment
and featured a driver's eye view of the signals in a Video for Windows
.avi file.
|
 |
Eastern Distributor - Airport Motorway, Sydney
 |
| Client: Underground Vision Pty Limited, Leighton TR |
As part of a pilot study, Dd3D Works was contracted by Underground
Vision Pty to build a 3D model of the North and South-bound tunnels at
their portals in Palmer St to just north of William St. The model
showed the tunnel design and all the underground services in context
with the above ground roads and built form. This project was used to
test a number of techniques and technologies established by UVPL for
underground projects.
