Conclusion
In this type of project, SketchUp demonstrates all of its simplicity and effi-
ciency. Other than the Artlantis export script, no other plug-ins were used: the
basic toolset was more than sufficient to model this type of building.
Regular communication with a client is always vital in any project to keep
abreast of the latest demands and to keep the client informed about the state
of the project. SketchUp is an ideal tool for this type of communication.
SketchUp fits in perfectly into the graphics pipeline and can be used to feed
data into much more sophisticated modeling or rendering programs.
In this project, the combination of SketchUp and Artlantis allowed some
extremely tight deadlines to be met and allowed the production of images of
the highest quality of a virtual project within a real urban context.
