St Helier 3D – Free Sample
Environment Information Model

Description

This model represents a sample of 0.5sqkm of buildings of the overall St Helier 3d environment
model containing 6sqkm of buildings. The native data is available as geo-referenced SketchUp tiles
with a States of Jersey annual mapping license, contact Digimap for license queries. For ease of use
and analysis, this data is presented within RealSim’s environment viewer, a powerful easy to use
desktop application designed for technical and non technical people alike who wish to see how
proposed changes to the built environment might look from any perspective. This analysis is aided
by a number of easy to use tools which include;

• A dynamic sun where shadows for any time of the day or year can be cast
• Weather simulation containing rain and adjustable fog
• Distance measure tool
• Block model massing analysis tool
• Place tool which facilitates the placement of pre-determined buildings, trees and structures

for quick on the fly scenario analysis.
Hardware consideration
This model will run on most modern PC’s and laptops without a graphics card but will run most
efficiently on computers with a graphics card
