Beyond Essentials CommunityViz 3

Beyond Essentials CommunityViz 3.  This two-day course offers an in-depth exploration of CommunityViz’s Scenario 360 and SiteBuilder 3D. Scenario 360 is an interactive decision-making tool that works as an extension to ESRI ArcMap. This software encourages participation and collaboration by engaging users and public audiences through two-dimensional visualization and interactive analysis.

 

Scenario 360 helps you view, project, analyze and understand potential alternatives and impacts via visual exploration and alternative scenario construction and analysis. It allows you to experiment with hypothetical scenarios, challenge assumptions on the fly, and view impacts of changes. Proposals, assumptions and impacts can be viewed side by side to illustrate the choices that need to be made.

 

SiteBuilder 3D can be used to provide real-time exploration of photo-realistic 3D landscapes using your existing data or elements from the 3D model library. Three-dimensional scenes can be exported in a portable format that can be used on other computers, thus allowing friends and colleagues the ability to digitally fly through and explore your scenes at no charge and without installing any special software.
