Virtual Town created using ESRI's ArcScene and Google SketchUp



This video shows a fly-over of a virtual reconstruction of Morgantown, West Virginia in 1900. Over 350 historic structure models were created in SketchUp, and then imported into ESRI's ArcScene to generate the final virtual town.

For information on how the the guys from the Laboratory for Geographic Information Science at West Virginia University did it, including the workflow, a picture gallery, and other information, visit their project web site. They also created a Virtual Morgantown collection of models in the the 3D Wareouse.
