We hear a great deal about Artificial Intelligence (Ai) and the technological impact on our world.

Remote Sensing, the art and technology of digitizing the World through satellites, planes and drones,

Is experiencing an Ai Revolution. Smart Vision AI, plus high-resolution aerials and photogrammetric algorithms are NOW producing detailed 2D and 3D data at unprecedented speeds and accuracy.

Cutting edge companies Nearmap and Ecopia Geospatial, use AI software to construct 3D meshes of cities (Nearmap Page Still Graphic 01.jpg), and 2D survey grade line work (Ecopia 01 and Ecopia 02)) and surfaces for the entire built environment.

The PlaceMaker Team, in agreement with Nearmap and Ecopia, is bringing SMART AI generated mapping data to the AEC community. For SketchUp, Revit, Lumion, 3D modelers and 2D drafting professionals. And you don’t need the PlaceMaker extension to get them. This is for anyone who wants it regardless of the software you are using.

For now, data is focused on the US, parts of Canada and select other locations. Most of the 3D Mesh Nearmap data can be provided within 1-2 business days. For Ecopia 2D / 3D site data, please learn more here.

As time progresses, the speed of delivery, location and quality will be improved.

This is just the beginning!
