Abstract

We present a novel approach to visualizing 3D models in aid of public consultation. 3D assets of architectural and engineering proposals are decomposed into individual constituents and uploaded to a NoSQL database (DB). A newly developed Android application visualizes such centrally stored assets on mobile devices. Localized comments are pushed back to the DB for subsequent analysis. This concept is expected to improve the public engagement and significantly reduce the costs of running such events.
