Coming Soon…

By Posts

We are taking a slightly extended Easter Break but coming up over the next seven days are a series of new London Night Panoramas including the London Eye, new Lidar Movies and news on the forthcoming London model as well as a review of VTour by RealViz along with some sample movies.

Also on the horizon are a series of historic maps in Google Earth thanks to a new link up with the Birbeck Slide Library and finally those Fantasy Architecture models in Google Earth which are continuing to be tricky to convert…

Any thoughts or comments as always welcome as well as requests for content…

Rapid Architecture – Lidar Movie

By Movies 10-20, Virtual London

We are in the first stages of our work funded by London Connects to extend the London model to the cities extent. As part of this we are working with Raw Lidar Data (LIght Detection And Ranging) – take a look at Lidar.com for more info.

Using data provided by InfoTerra and software written in-house by Chris Parker we have been able to import the data direct into a 3D Modelling package and render a sample movie. Modelling utilising Raw Lidar data is a issue which is still in its early stages of research but it creates an interesting movie of the city as viewed by the scanner. More movies will be available soon.

You can view the movie here (4mb Windows Media Player format)
