  1. Los Angeles • City of four million (ten million in the Los Angeles hinterland) • Largest city in the United States after New York • World city status • 1994 Northridge earthquake: redevelopment schemes for much of the city

  2. UCLA Virtual Los Angeles Project • Real-time simulation of Los Angeles basin (10k sq. mi.) • “Accurate enough for the graffiti on walls and signs in windows to be legible” • Developed using Multigen software • Requires very advanced computing hardware and resources Downtown LA & LAX Airport

  3. 3D Metric Orange County • Virtual simulation tool for planning wireless communications • Building-by-building database • Little known about cost of development or maintenance Orange County, California

  4. Planet 9 Virtual Los Angeles • Web-based VRML models • Los Angeles County, Downtown, Convention Center, Beverly Hills • Commercial demo., community outreach, virtual information tool Los Angeles County & Rodeo Drive

  5. San Francisco • San Francisco Bay Area: San Jose, Palo Alto, Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Berkeley, Oakland • Earthquake redevelopment • Financial District dominated by banking and investment houses

  6. Planet 9 Virtual Bay Area • Commissioned by NASA • Impressively detailed: 4000 buildings, each texture mapped • Impressive vistas as a backdrop to the built environment • High end simulation Bay Area

  7. Planet 9 Virtual San Francisco 2.0 • Commissioned by NASA • Impressively detailed: 4000 buildings, each texture mapped • Impressive vistas as a backdrop to the built environment • High end simulation Downtown San Francisco

  8. Planet 9 Online Models • Moscone Center, Rincon Hill, SOMA, W. SOMA, South Beach, Union District, Financial District • VRML based online models • Advertising, information, community resources, e-commerce • Desktop solution SOMA and Union Districts

  9. Chicago • Third largest city in the United States • Regional capital for the Midwest • Historical epicentre for the ‘Chicago School of Urban Geography’ • Financial district, the Loop, houses the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT)

  10. Planet 9 Virtual Chicago • Web-based virtual environment • Accessible with minimal computing resources • Potential for interactive functionality: e-commerce, information tool • Not as fully developed as San Francisco online models Chicago skyline and detail

  11. 3D Metric Chicago • Virtual simulation tool for planning wireless communications • Building-by-building database containing information such as building heights, foliage, etc. Downtown Chicago

  12. Urban Data Solutions Chicago • Integrated CAD, GIS, and VR models • ‘On-Net’: an online environment for organizing infromation • High-end PC hardware • Microstation software • Medium cost solution Downtown Chicago
