With this intuitive interface, Archicad users can not only import 3D information for use in their projects, but they can also publish their designs to the world. Whether you want to create presentations of proposed developments, share a building you’ve designed, or view a BIM model in context, you’ll find the combination of Archicad, Google Earth, SketchUp and the Google 3D Warehouse a powerful way to express your creativity. The Google Earth Connections add-on package enables integration between Archicad, Google Earth, SketchUp and Google 3D Warehouse through.
This means you can view your model on the site where you plan to build it, surrounded by the buildings and landscapes that are already there. All other functions of the Google Earth Connections Add-on are available on 64-bit, and will be integrated in the next version of Archicad. Google Earth comes in free and paid versions that you download to your computer, and it’s full of aerial imagery and models.
Some features of the Google Earth Connections Add-on are 32-bit only, therefore these functionalities are not available in the 64-bit version of Archicad. Here’s a quick guide on how to read topographic map.Archicad 16 is the last release of Archicad to support Windows XP and any 32-bit operating system.The next major release of Archicad will be 64-bit only, and will support only 64-bit Operating Systems, including Windows 7 and Windows 8: Discontinued32BitSupport Here, we will try to generate 5m contour interval based on the Google map topography, with the specified value of 20m contour interval.īefore we start the modelling procedures, we should analyze first the contour interval of the topographic map. In this tutorial, we will learn how to adjust the contour intervals using SketchUp. Technically, it is possible to label the elevation of each contour line more extensively up to 5 meters (or less) through 3-D modelling. Topographic maps may have many contour lines. Figure 13-1 The potential for seamless integration between SketchUp models and Google Earth is what prompted Google a few years back to buy. These topographic elevations found mostly on online map can only be viewed in a macro scale level, showing a minimum of 20m contour intervals. Most contour lines found in online topographic maps such as Google map ( ), Open Street Maps ( ), NAMRIA ( ), etc. Modelling and reading topographic maps becomes more convenient with the aid of modern technology such as online map surveying and 3-D modelling software.
