Using FME as part of a workflow to create models for use in Blender, an open source 3D modelling application. Includes lidar and raster analysis to create surfaces and textures used in visualisations and bespoke maps.
6. Sir Ove Arup, The Key Speech 1970
“Our work should only be
interesting and rewarding. Only
a job well done, as well as we
can do it – and as well as it can
be done – is that. We must
therefore strive for quality in
what we do and never be
satisfied with second-rate.”
