Charlotte, NC: Spearheading the Move to Smart Cities - CyberCity 3D Models & Data Boost the Green Power

Jan 14, 2016 -- The third fastest growing major city in the U.S. -- Charlotte, NC—has made it to CyberCity 3D’s City Library, the largest collection of its kind.  Charlotte, nationally known for its sustainability efforts, is hosting Envision America this week, a workshop aimed at sparking smart city initiatives across the U.S.

CC3D's map of Charlotte contains approximately 20,000 “smart” buildings structures.

The city has utilized the building data for a number of planning and “green” efforts such as solar potential, rainwater collection, tree canopy, environmental sustainability, auto-texturing the core downtown area, and community outreach.  Here you can see the detailed rooftop geometry in our models, perfect for solar and rainwater runoff analysis:
