The Urban Design Committee of Baltimore wants to create a 3-D model of Baltimore that shows the existing city, proposed projects and suggestions where to add density and development. We think we should do this open source starting out with the Google Earth model and add buildings using the Google tools. Can we get suggestions from those who have done something similar without the very big sponsors and funds that Seattle had when Autodesk and Parson Brinckerhoff did it there in conjunction with the Alaskan Way project. Issues are terrain modeling and the easy way to add un-built projects.
Which Cities ahve more or less complete 3_D models, which softwares did they use and how do they stay current? Please post answers here or send answers to
