3D Visualization and Analysis Demo

MIT Department of Facilities uses the ArcGIS 3D Analyst extension to manage and plan space campus-wide. See how improved visualization at ArcGIS 9.3 facilitates decision making. Recorded at the 2008 ESRI International User Conference. http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/extensions/3danalyst/index.html

To get more in-depth information about making a 3D coverage area map in ArcMap, you might want to contact our support team by visiting our website.

really professional work ,I like the 3D analyze in 9.3, one question is the map floors was first created by AutoCad and then exported to ArcMap?

Thanks

This data came from MITs Facilities Department. I cant be 100% sure how the data was created but I assume that the floor data was first in AutoCAD and then imported to ArcGIS. I think in most cases facility departments have this kind of data in AutoCAD first.

What type of computer system specifications do you need to be able to run this program?

[esritv]

The program in this video is ArcGlobe, an application included in the Spatial Analyst extension for ArcGIS Desktop. Any machine that meets the system requirements for ArcGIS Desktop could run this application/demonstration. It would also be a good idea to make sure you have a decent video card. The more on board memory the better.

I find it difficult to download from this site

Thank you

Hey...

So..it does live in AutoCAD...and we've done a number of different things to get it into geodatabase. We currently use FME, which is DataInterop Extension. this data goes into SDE for consuption of both web and desktop apps.

Thank you for the information , I did a 3D map for a big complex and I am now trying to make a 3D coverage area map of a WiFi tower in this complex I think a lot of variable should be considered,is there a special tool in ArcMap 9.3 that can do this calculation?

Thanks

why do they clap mid way through? let him speak! impressive map tho.
