InfraWorks for Architects

PRESENTER: This is InfraWorks for architects. First off, I'd just like to say, thank you all for picking this class out of all the others that you had a choice from. I don't particularly like speaking about myself. I'm just going to leave this up here. The only thing I'm going to say is that, in addition to this, I've been in the AEC industry for about 25, 26 years. Been manager for the past about 17 years, now. I recently started working at AI Engineers. Do a lot of horizontal construction, roadways, bridges, construction engineering, and inspection services, as well as load ratings.

The poll results from, it was probably about 70, or so, that had answered. Looks like we got a good chunk of you who have never used InfraWorks before. So that's really kind of discouraging, in a way, because it's such a cool program. And you could do so much with it. And then there's a couple of you that use it all the time. So hopefully everyone will get something out of this.

The learning objectives, as I was writing the handout, it quickly grew from this, to a lot more that I wanted to share with you. Hopefully, we'll get through all this. If not, there is the handout. There are hyperlinks, resources that you can go to that cover all of this stuff, whether it's AK on articles that I've written, AUGIWorld articles that I've written. So hopefully, like I said, we'll get through all of this.

And with that, we're just going to dive right into the demo, here. And it's not showing up there for some reason. All right, What's going on here? No. All right, sorry about this. Well, that didn't work. OK. That'll work.

OK, so InfraWorks. [MIC NOISE] Off to a great start, here. So to create your model in InfraWorks, the easiest way, by far, is to use Model Builder. Now, it's important to note that, if you have in InfraWorks LT, you do not have access to Model Builder. So it's something you may want to look into. Good thing is, if you are on the AEC Collection, then you have this, you've got Model Builder. You also have access to Civil 3D, Revit, all these other things that will help that will help you geo-locate and cross collaborate between Revit, Civil 3D, InfraWorks, NavisWorks.

When we fire Model Builder, basically, what we get is a Bing Maps interface. And really, the only thing you need to create your model is just a general idea of where that site location is. If you have the address, you can certainly enter that in over here.

As we zoom in, see, right over here, we have a maximum allowed area of 200 square kilometers, which should, hopefully, be sufficient for your project. Now, right below the address bar, there's four different ways we can generate what's called the area of interest, the AOI, in InfraWorks. We've got the overall display of the map, here, which is this first icon. We can create a rectangular area. We can also modify that, if we need to. We create a polygon shape. And the last one allows you to import a shape file, a GIS shape file. So if you have, say, property limit lines, a neighborhood, a boundary, city block, something like that, you can narrow it down, specifically, to that particular location.

Next thing you need to do is give your model a name. And then, lastly, which group do you want to associate your model with? I have three different groups that I'm associated with. I would just give it my default, here. Just call it "Test," Create Model.

And that's it. The cloud is going to build this model when it's complete. You'll get an email. You'll also get to see different icons show up in InfraWorks. It's letting you know that it's available for download. The information that you're going to get in that model, the roadways, the buildings, railways, water areas, things like that, that all comes from open street maps data sources. The imagery, of course, because we're using Bing Maps here, all the satellite imagery is from Bing. The underlying digital elevation model in the US, it's USGS 10 and 30 meter data-- I'm just going to close this.

There's the model. It's already available for download. And they've got the little cloud icon here, so that is a dead giveaway that it's still up in the cloud, has not been downloaded yet. But I have got one that I've been working on. Just going to fire this up.

So this model is part of Las Vegas. And once this opens up, you'll see exactly what you get when you initially download the model. Well, no, that's not it. That's a lot better. All right. Put your phone down, Kevin. All right, this is what you get.

So you can see it brought in the buildings, brought in roadways, water areas. It's a good start. It's not great, that's for sure. But depending on what you're doing, it may be sufficient. You notice the, shapes of the buildings, those are just strictly the building footprints. You're not getting all the fine detail of the actual building itself. So what I would normally do, once I download this model, first thing I want to do is create a new proposal. And proposals in InfraWorks, you can think of them as options, or phases, or maybe even milestones of the project.

So I would create a new proposal. And then I would really start to tweak the graphics. And the reason for that is so I have something to go back to, in case things go crazy. So like I said, the buildings, they were not that great. You got Kevin, here, from Cyber City 3D. He was generous enough to let me use some of the models for Las Vegas Boulevard, here, particularly the areas that we're in right now.

So one of the things I would do when I start to tweak my model, whether it's bringing in better models, whether sketching out roadways, things like that, I would also update the background, the satellite imagery. And the reason for that is-- you can see it's kind of fuzzy. And I'll give you a better view of what this actually looks like.

So this is the default resolution that InfraWorks pulls in. We can bump that up to the highest resolution. And of course, the higher the resolution, the larger the files, the longer it's going to take to download, depending on your internet connection, et cetera. But the output is, by far, much better.

And you can do that through the Data Sources tab. Uh-oh, where'd it go?

AUDIENCE: Can I ask a question?

PRESENTER: Yes.

AUDIENCE: Do you think, is there going to be push, at all, to ever [INAUDIBLE] a way that could get the buildings in, like [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: That's a good question. I don't know. There are-- what's going on, here? There we go. So getting back, to update the background imagery, simply right click on the ground imagery, configure. And here's that 17 level. Change that to the 19. And I'm not going to do that, because, like I say, it's going to take a while, depending on the size of your site, too. I've had ones that have taken about an hour and a half to download. So, something you may want to do before you head out for lunch or after work.

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: What's that?

AUDIENCE: Will you just repeat what you said about--

PRESENTER: The background imagery? Yeah, so under the Data Sources, tab Ground Imagery, you right click and select Configure. And it brings up this dialog box. And on the Raster tab, you change that from 17 to 19. And that will give you the high res satellite imagery.

AUDIENCE: Could you go back down to a lower res?

PRESENTER: Sure, you certainly could, yeah.

AUDIENCE: So you could work at it in a low res. And then, when you're ready to produce the final product, jump to higher.

PRESENTER: You could do that, yeah. Although, I mean, once you download it, it's going to be super fast navigating the model. What's really going to slow it down is when you start messing around with the detail levels of the objects, especially if you've got a lot of trees, all the branches, and the leaves, and stuff like that.

All right, so we've got our InfraWorks model built. Now we want to bring in our Revit model that we're working on. There's a couple of ways we can do that. The easiest way is to just simply place it right in there. Let's see, where it it? Uh-oh. That's not good.

Now, there's a couple of ways. We can geo-locate it. Or we can place it interactively. Interactively is exactly what it sounds like. You can place it wherever you want on the site, rotate it, elevate it, things like that. If you've ever used the Shared Reference tool in and earlier versions of Civil 3D and Revit, it's basically the same idea. It's a different process. And it's basically backwards.

So whereas, in previous versions, you exported your Revit floor plan, pulled it into Civil 3D, rotated it, elevated it based on the terrain, and then used the Shared Reference Tool, pick your two points, creates the XML File. With the new version, the 2018 Collection, you can basically take the opposite approach, pull the Civil 3D DWG file into Revit, rotate it, elevate it, and just acquire coordinates right in Revit. And it'll automatically grab whatever the state plane system is that you've defined.

Now, this is taking a little too long here. The other thing I want to point out, while this is chugging away here, if you do decide to do interactive placement, what's going to happen is, essentially in the background, it's going to use a Navisworks engine to convert the Revit model to something InfraWorks can read. And what it's going to do is use the--

So this is where the view, the particular 3D view that you want to convert-- if you use a Navis View, a Navis View is a 3D view that has the prefix Navis. So you can set that up. If you're pulling it into InfraWorks, you're probably not going to see furniture, casework, things like that. So you'd turn that off in your 3D view.

If you don't have a Navis View, then it's going to use the first 3D view. If you don't have a first 3D view, it's going to use the entire project. So something to think about, when you're bringing the model in. This thing is still processing, which is not cool.

AUDIENCE: Is there [INAUDIBLE]?

PRESENTER: Honestly, I guess it really depends on what you want to do with it. I do like the FBX approach. It's a bit faster. You kind of lose some of the graphic displays, a little bit. Really, it comes down to what you want to do with the model, how well do you want them to present.

AUDIENCE: What's the image quality [INAUDIBLE] What's going to give you the best quality [INAUDIBLE] sources?

PRESENTER: Probably pulling directly from Revit. I've seen instances where you do FBX, it loses some of the materials in the translation, especially if you don't have Navisworks installed. Something with the material libraries, it kind of goes haywire.

All right, so we got that model finally pulled in. Where'd it go? Not even sure why it went. Oh, right here. So this is the interactive placement. Again, like I said, you just click a point, rotate it, and move it wherever you want. If you have it set up, geo-located with your Civil 3D file, then it's a simple matter of setting your state plane coordinate system. And it'll fall right into place wherever you have that defined in Civil 3D.

All right, so we've got our model in here. We can start to do some really basic analysis. The easiest, by far, is Sun and Shade Analysis. And just clicking on the Sun and Sky Pallet-- let me make sure I've got Shadows turned on. And really, all it is just a matter of setting your date, and then sliding the time back and forth.

If you want to export this to a video file, If you want to add this to a presentation, it's super simple to do. Fire up the Storyboard Creator, I actually already have one created. I'm just going to start a new one, though. And you want to add the date and time animation. From here, it's a matter of setting your preferences, time of day, day of the year, when you want the animation to start, so when the sun is going to rise, and when it's going to set. And how long you want this animation to go for. Click play. And that's it. From there, If you want, you can export that, like I said, to an AVI. I think MPEG is another one, yeah, MPEG, WMV file.

So some other analysis we can do is-- let me change my proposal here-- we can do Terrain Themes. And actually, this may be better suited for-- actually, though, let's do this one. So there's also a Sunrise and Sunset theme that we can do. And essentially, it's really not this accurate, because, I mean, this would be accurate if you were right on the equator, based on where East and West is.

But what we can do-- let me fire it up, here, Feature Theme. Oh, what was it. Oh, I'm drawing a blank on that one. Well, just because the Las Vegas file is very flat, we'll skip showing that in the actual model. But this is really what it's going to look like, what it's going to do. It's going to highlight the terrain based on where the sun is hitting it. So you got a sunrise condition. You got a sunset condition.

So if you're concerned about bright sunlight in the morning, or not enough sun in the evening, you can do that on your model, and get a good idea of where the sun and the shadows are going to fall on your building. The Terrain Theme, super easy to do. Oh, it's right there. I was in the wrong one.

So Elevation, just leave the defaults here. And we can see our high points, low points. Again, really flat, so you don't get as great of a representation. But something that's really simple to do.

AUDIENCE: Can I ask you, the degree of accuracy of that-- I mean, that's coming off the [INAUDIBLE] information, right? So USGS, so it's not--

PRESENTER: Correct, yeah. It's not super accurate. You're not going to see sharp breaks in your terrain If you have a retaining wall condition. You're going to get a really rolling, interpolated terrain. But it's a good starting point if you don't have a field survey yet.

AUDIENCE: Right.

PRESENTER: Another thing we can do, kind of piggybacking on the Terrain Theme, is a simple flood analysis. InfraWorks does have some tools for that. I think this is much easier and faster. And basically, what I've done here is I've sketched out a building that covers the entire site, here. Drop the elevation of it. So if I go to the properties, my elevation offset is minus 200 feet. I just made it blue, just to kind of represent water. And then, just simply grabbing the gizmo here, we can elevate that, get a rough idea of your high points, low points. Again, kind of piggybacking on the Terrain Theme before.

Another thing we can do is, say we're working on a site, maybe it's a beach front kind of property. And we're concerned about visibility of something off in the distance, maybe housing development up on the hill for the private beach below. I don't have a beach model, so I'm just going to quickly represent it here. We can do something that's called Select Visible. So it gives you a good idea if those houses up on the hill are going to be visible to the beach goers down below.

Now, I've got a view set up here, Sort of at the top of the Eiffel Tower, down the road, here. And let's say there's an air handler that is up on the roof over here. And for whatever reason, somebody is concerned about the visibility of it. Real simple to do. Ah, where was it? Select Visible, so quick that. It's going to highlight everything that is visible from that particular point of view in your model. And if we were to scroll over here to-- where is it? I had a little model in here.

Well, you get the idea. So it shows everything that's going to be visible. Now, one thing you want to keep in mind is, depending on the detail level, if you've got your detail set really low, things start to kind of fade away out in the distance, trees, cars are a good example. So you want to crank that detail level all the way up for this particular analysis. That way, you're sure that InfraWorks is going to grab that info.

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: What's that?

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: I was just going to get that. So these particular buildings, they're-- I don't know the whole background of it. But as you get further away, the quality doesn't degrade. So definitely something to keep in mind.

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: OK.

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: OK, so something to keep in mind if you're using the Cyber City models, which if anyone wants to hit up Kevin afterwards-- little plug for you. I highly recommend it. I mean, you saw the starting model that we got. And you look at this. And it's light years ahead of what Model Builder gives you.

AUDIENCE: Would you say they have this kind of detail for most big cities?

PRESENTER: Yeah, well, what you get out of Model Builder is just the actual footprint of the building extruded straight up. So you don't get all the fine detail of the facades, or the point here, things like that. Now, something else I want to show you. It kind of ties in the whole Feature Themes. You see this tool tip that's popping up here. This kind of goes back to what I said earlier about creating your first proposal, start doing all your tweaking there. If you make changes in a later proposal, those changes are not reflected back to prior proposals. So in this case-- I'll get into this tool tip in a bit-- but not all the information is populated to show up in this proposal. It is for another proposal, though.

So if I hover over this, I get a nice little graphic of the building itself. Now, this is not out of the box stuff, out of the box properties or parameters, that I'm tapping into here. I've created my own category called AU 2017. I've got different sub-properties under there. And you can do that. There's a tool called in InfraWorks Schema Editor. If you do decide to use this to start populating your own information, whether it's the building owner, square footage, the year it was renovated, anything that you can think of, you can throw information in there and start to analyze that. And I'll show you some of that stuff in the Feature Themes a little bit later.

But if you do decide to use this, try it out on a sort of a junk model first, because if you screw something up, you can't undo it. This is not officially supported by Autodesk, even though it's out there. But just to kind of show you what we can get here.

So here's the categories that I created under the Buildings class. So I've got the building owner. It's a string value. It could be a Boolean, so a yes-no toggle, date, time, double, integer or string. And you can have, really, as many of these things as you want. Like I said, if you do decide to use this, test it out on a model first. Because there's no going back.

So once I got this stuff populated here, we can start to analyze our surrounding buildings even more to get a better idea of what is in the, in this particular case, what are the surrounding owners? Who are they? What properties do they own?

And to do that, we'll go to the Feature Themes. Click New. I'll give it a title of Owner. The Feature Class is going to be Buildings. And here's two of the categories that I created. So I'll do Owner. And I want Individual Values. So it's going to have a different color for every single owner. Click OK. And it's actually a little bit easier to view If I tweak that. So now we can easily see who owns what building on this property.

Jumping into the HTML code for the Tool Tip, really simple stuff. This is all in the handouts. You can copy/paste, add it to your models. Basically, this portion here defines the overall look of the Tool Tip. There's a little script in here that will pull up that model in Google Maps.

And here's the rest of the information. So we've got the USER_OWNER. Any custom properties you add are going to have USER underscore, and then whatever the name is after that. So I've got the owner, their web site, average room cost. And that all pops up in that tool tip.

The image is tied into the name of the building itself, so this name tag here, and then where those images are. And that's really it. Like I said, you can add any information you want, heating-cooling loads, things like that. You can go crazy with the amount of information that you throw in there and start analyzing your buildings.

AUDIENCE: [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: The Feature Themes? So if we click on the eye hear, Analyze your Model, and Feature Themes. Now, we can also create snapshots of our model. I've got a bunch of bookmarks set up here, Different Views automatically brings me to it. And turn that off. So you can set up the views wherever you like, for your model, here. And we can quickly export those to a JPEG file. There is a Snapshot Tool which allows you to do them one at a time. And that's under the Create and Conduct Infrastructure Design Presentations button, so Create Snapshot.

Like I said, we can do it manually. Or we can run a script and just zip right through each one. And to get to the scripts, we go to the eye, we go there. And this script is also included in the handout, as well. There's a couple of things in here you may want to change. The image-width, value, the height, and the location that you want to dump all those JPEGs out too.

For the sake of this demonstration, I'm just going to kick the graphics all the way down, just so it doesn't bog down going through each one. And when I start script, that's it. It just ran through these half dozen or so bookmarks here, and created an image for each one.

Now, it's important to note that these images are not tied to individual proposals. So if you have a proposal showing a building in one location, and then you've got a proposal showing a building in another location, then you would have to do the images manually. Otherwise, it's just going to use the current proposal for all the images, there.

AUDIENCE: So even if you created an image while you're in a proposal [INAUDIBLE]

PRESENTER: No, the script, it doesn't care what proposal you're in.

AUDIENCE: Oh, OK.

PRESENTER: It's whatever the active proposal is, that's the one it's going to use to generate all the image files. Yep. In addition to this, we can also create a video, whether it's a fly-over, or a drive-through. There's a couple of ways we can do this. I'm going to close these down. I want to go the Storyboard Creator. I'm going to Create a New Storyboard.

Now, again, my graphics are kicked all the way down. Your buildings are kind of sketchy looking there, Kevin. You got some weird stuff going on there. I just saw the original buildings flash up. Let me kick this up a little bit here. There we go. That's better.

So if you want to create a real simple fly-over of your site, it's really just a matter of clicking Views, really. And it's going to stitch those views together. If you've ever used Navisworks to create an animation, similar concept. You have your Save Points and Navisworks. And it's stitches those views together. Same thing in InfraWorks.

So I'm just going to do Add Camera Path Animation. So this is my first key-frame at this particular view. If I spin around over here, click the plus, add a key-frame right after that, that's the next stop. Add one there. And if I run this-- of course, I'd want to be a little bit more selective on my pick points. But you get the idea. It's super simple to create a fly-over in InfraWorks. And again, just like the sun and sky animation I showed you earlier, you can dump this out to an AVI file, MPEG, Windows Media, share that with somebody.

Now, we can also add a title to it, give it a little more pizzazz. I'm just going to slide that over. I'm going to slide this over to about the two second mark, because I don't want my video to start at exactly the same time as the title showing. And I'm going to change the transparency to 50%, just so we can kind of see the background prior to the video starting.

So, really simple, really simple animation tools, here. Another one we can do is based on a road. So we can have our camera follow that road. And it's really simple, as well. I'm going to start another new storyboard. And I'm going to create it from a design road. And the road I want to use-- I'll select this one here.

So now we have some options here. By default, it's going to kick the camera right down the center, or wherever the center line is defined in your roadway. In this case, it happens to be right down the middle of the road, right down the median. So I'll offset, I'll say, 20 feet. And if I just click Create, give it a second there, so there it is, 20 feet, horizontal, off the center line of that road, which is right over here.

Because it's so simple to create a new one, rather than try to modify it, it's going to go back 20 feet. And this time, I'll let the camera pointed kind of over towards the building on the right, here. So Horizontal Offset, I'll say, a 25 feet. And let's see what these give us. So now you can see it's kind of looking more towards the building itself.

And again, just like the other video I just show you, you can add titles to it. Throw that on there. Slide this over-- actually, over there. And it's not planned for some reason. All right, well, we'll skip that, then.

Another thing we can do is, as we get closer to Features, we can have something pop up that says, Main Entrance to the Building, or Parking Garage Entrance, something like that. There's a couple of ways we can do that. One way is-- I'm sure you've all seen the 3D text that some of them will model up in Revit or AutoCAD, and they'll drop it in the model as a piece of city furniture. The bad thing about that is it's only viewable, readable from one direction. If you swoop around, and you're looking at a text, it's going to be backward. So I prefer either a POI or a caption in the video.

And to do POIs are really simple. POI is a point of interest. And by default, it shows up as one of these weird tags, or a push pen, or something like that. But what we can do is make it really small. And just for the sake of this, I'm just going to leave it there. Where is my-- so Tool Tip, call it Entrance.

Now POIs have this thing called proximity distance. So when you get within a certain radius, that text will pop up. So if we say, I don't know, 150 feet, as soon as we get within 150 feet, it'll show up. Get outside of that radius, it disappears.

One thing that's kind of unique though with InfraWorks, and I just thought of it right now, is when you're updating information, whether it's the properties or any of these values here, if I were just to hit Enter, and click out here, it doesn't actually update any of that information, unless you have Auto Update turned on, or you click Update afterwards. Honestly don't know why they have that set like that. So now if I click update, see, the text popped up. As I get further away, that disappears.

And again, you can shrink these, shrink the POIs, just change their scale to something really small. Remember to click update. So now you really won't even see it as you're driving by.

Sort of the downside to that, if you're doing it in a video, is that text kind of jumps around depending on where the camera is. So what I would prefer to do instead is add a caption. And a caption will just show up and disappear once it gets past a certain time-stamp here. There we go. So it shows up. And you can change the alignment of that, whether you want it top-center, middle-center, left, right, whatever. That's all changeable there.

So you've got your snapshots. You've got your videos. You want people to know who created these things. So you can add what's called a watermark. And that's what these two images are up here. So I've got my company's logo, I've got Kevin's Cyber City 3D Logo. And these will show up when you export your video files or create your snapshots. And it's just as simple as Clicking Plus, going out, grabbing an image file. And then you got some options here, transparency, where you want that to show up, the sides of it, et cetera. It's a really simple thing to add a little branding to your images and your videos.

How we doing? Uh, we got 15 more minutes.

So jumping ahead to VR experiences real quick. InfraWorks does not have a way of doing any kind of VR. So you have to pull this out, dump it into some other program. The easiest way I've found-- and depending on the graphics that you're after, it's going to vary. But the easiest way I've found is pull this into Navisworks. And you can export your model as an FBX file.

So you can select the shape of the export, whether it's a polygon or a box, whether it's one file or individual files for the different materials, different features, here. I typically just stay with a single file. Jump over to Navisworks. Just like you bring in any other file, same thing here.

So then it's just a matter of setting your view. So let's say I want to do a 360 panel from here. One thing you want to do before you actually render it out to the cloud is just look around. Because it is a 360 view. So you want to make sure you're not looking at some dead wall, or some dead space. So just do quick pan around. And then Render in Cloud.

And just like any other rendering, it will upload the scene to your Autodesk rendering gallery. Set your settings here. I would certainly advise to select just the standard low res stuff until you're sure you like the output. Then you can start applying the final and different sizes here. Because that's going to, certainly, affect the number of credits that you have available.

So what you're going to get out of that is, really, just what I call a poor man's VR, which is a 360 panoramic view. And-- see, where is it? Come on.

So this is what you're going to get, real simple, real basic VR experience. And the nice thing about this is you can save this link. You can share this with someone and they don't need any kind of special headgear. They don't need a Google Cardboard or anything like that. You just send them a link. And they open it up in Chrome, Internet Explorer, whatever they have. And they can just simply pan around and get a general sense of what their space is going to look like, whether it's a room or a site, in this case.

You can also re-render this using a different background. So this one gives it a much better look, I think. We've got some actual clouds here. And if you do re-render, you've got these different environments here. If you look it up, you'll see a little snapshot of what each of these environments is. Again, just adds a little bit more realism to the output.

So this one is also a sort of a Google Cardboard type of rendering. If you share the link with someone, they open it up on their phone. Again, another nice point about having the link is you don't need a QR reader, which a lot of the free QR readers start to fill the screen with ads and whatnot, and start to eat up your viewing space. You send them a link. It pops right up, full screen. And then you can start viewing that in, like I said, Cardboard, or any other kind of VR-type headgear.

And last-- let's see how long this will take. If we do everything right, if geo-locate all of our models, and everything's talking back and forth, the InfraWorks, the Revit model, the site model, you can then export all of that out to an even better VR experience using Live. And again, if you're on the AEC collection, you have Live, you have Revit, you have Navisworks, InfraWorks. You have all these tools at your disposal.

So this is our InfraWorks model and our Revit model pulled into Live. Now, all of the Cyber City models here, I pulled those into Civil 3D. And I tried exporting it two different ways. I tried exporting it as just a regular DWG file, and pulling that into Revit. Problem with that, although it looked really great, it was just a really, really heavy file having that DWG in there. Rather than doing that, I exported from Civil 3D to IFC format. Pulled the IFC into Revit. That converted it to a more native file format that Revit was much, much happier with. All right.

So a lot of the stuff that I may not have covered, or some of the stuff that I may not have covered, it's all in here, the resources. This Collaboration and More in Five Simple Steps, it's approximately 25 minute Screencast video. But it goes through everything, from creating the InfraWorks model, pulling the InfraWorks into Civil 3D, Civil 3D to Revit, back and forth with those guys, into Navisworks, out to VR. It's all covered in that 25 minute video. And there's also some links to some of the AUGIWorld articles that I've written.

Kind of talking about branding again, once you've got your images and your VR experiences, whether it's the hyperlinks, or whatever, you can order these custom mailers, have your company's logo on there, have, maybe, QR codes that people can scan. Brings them right to the VR model. And they've got something with your name on it. And your work that you've done.

And there's a really cool VR experience that, maybe, you mail these out, or hand them out at city meetings, things like that. It's a couple of links there. Depending on how fancy you get with the material, the shiny cardboard versus a more flat finish, they can get to be rather pricey. But there's a couple links there for you guys to check out if you're interested in that. And with that, Any questions?
