FAQ

How can I change the texture, color or shape of a 3D model?

You can change the look of most 3D models manually in the editor. You can select the model you would like to change in the 3D world or from the list of present buildings, and change color and texture on the right side of the editor window. You can also change the shape of most models by using the brush functionality.
See also changing constructions. When you have used I3S data, such as shown in the Demo San Francisco project, you have to change the SLPK data file and import the data again in to the Tygron Platform.

How do I import new 3D models?

You can upload Geo data to the Tygron Platform with the Geo Data Wizard. The data can either be imported as a 2D map (an Overlay or as a 3D model. For 3D models there are two options: choosing one of our 3D models for the different building type functions we have created or by uploading your own realistic model with textures. See the following page for more information on importing Geo data.

How do I delete a 3D model?

You can select the model to be deleted in the 3D world or from the list of buildings. You can then select to remove the building.

Why do the 3D models float in the 3D world?

If imported buildings float, usually the floor/ ground level attribute is not correctly configured in the Geo data file used for the import. When the building is already generated by the Tygron Platform, the most common cause is that the building is close to an edge or other difference in terrain elevation and due to rounding off of grid cells or height sectors the building (partially) floats.
