Parramatta. Sydney in 3D

Parramatta-based Regional Development Australia (RDA) Sydney, in conjunction with stakeholder groups has launched Virtual Sydney; a 3D interactive planning model that captures the entire Sydney Metropolitan area. The project provides a practical 3D model for metropolitan area that can be used to demonstrate and communicate the potential uses and benefits of ‘whole of city’ concept planning to key staff across federal, state and local government. “This is the first 3D model in Australia that encompasses the whole of Sydney region as opposed to just the CBD.,” said chair of Regional Development Australia Sydney, Alan Pendleton.
