| 3-d visualization
provides landscape architects with a powerful tool to express the design
intent to a client. Traditional methods such as plan views, sections, elevations
and hand drawn persepectives still play a vital role in portraying the design
intent to the client, 3d renderings give options not available with traditional
methods. 3d visualization provides extremely accurate perspectives with
a wide range of possibilities such as shadow patterns calculated for a specific
area of the country at an exact time of day as well as lighting effects
at night. 3d models also have the flexibility once they are completed of
viewing the project from any perspective desired and allow the lighting
and environmental conditions to be easily altered. |
