GBA’s design visualization specialists use the latest computer technology to help clients get a clear picture of what’s in store for their projects. It enables them to consider the potential impact of alternative designs before construction begins, while changes are still the easiest and least costly. It also enables clients to market their projects to and get important input from stakeholders, constituents, investors, and even potential customers before the project leaves the drawing board.

Members of our staff use the most current computer technology, including 3D modeling, computer animation, virtual environments, photo-simulation, and video production. We can take aerial and ground photography of a site and build a “virtual” project within that environment. Or we can insert “real people” into a virtual project environment. 3D visualization can also be used in conjunction with geographic information systems (GIS) to provide municipalities with visual cadastral mapping, an end-to-end design, and documentation of utility and communication networks, or a comprehensive engineering design of land development, city planning, and infrastructure support.
