San Francisco/Zurich, Jan. 24, 2017 — CloudCities today announced an update to the platform bringing IFC support and private scenes. The new CloudCities is now available at cloudcities.io.
CloudCities is an online platform for visualizing, editing, and publishing interactive 3D city models. It dramatically simplifies creating 3D plans and combining data with it. With the new version, users can configure the privacy of their scenes and even add a password to restrict access. CloudCities now also embraces BIM with full IFC support.
Introducing the CloudCities Privacy Settings
CloudCities 3D web scenes can now be set to public, unlisted, or private. Private scenes are only accessible by the owner, or, alternatively, can have a password to grant access to other users.
All New IFC Support
BIM in the cloud is revolutionized by the new IFC support. Importing BIM projects is now a breeze, with easy-to-understand grouping options. Visualization is fast thanks to the CloudCities 3D streaming. Managing the connected data is intuitive with the attribute editor.
Side-by-side Attribute Editor
3D data mashup is revolutionized with the new attribute editor. Attributes can be shown as a spreadsheet side-by-side with the 3D view. When selecting an object in the scene, the corresponding row in the spreadsheet will automatically be highlighted. Vice-versa, selecting a row in the spreadsheet will automatically highlight the corresponding 3D object in the viewport. The Zoom To option lets you easily find the object you are editing.
