In different situations the shape of one of more buildings could be already defined:
- The building is already existing.
- The future building shape is highly constrained by boundaries and regulation.
- An first building shape idea emerged from the empty site analysis.
In all of these cases you can create or clone a Gird, import the simplified shape of the Project Sketch as OBJ file, and (re)create the Geodata and Simulations that will take into account the self-obstruction of the Project Sketch. To analyze the building surfaces in the visualizer you can follow a very similar process as the one to analyze empty sites using Threshold, Map, PoV, etc. In addition the following filters can be specifically useful:
-
Close To Project: to analyze the sensor points close to the building using Walls, Roof and Edges options.
- Close To Terrain: to analyze the spaces surrounding the building.
