Compare development options before the plan is fixed
Move quickly from site potential to reviewable scenarios. Test programme, density, housing mix, parking, greenery, environmental effects and feasibility in one shared 3D planning context.
Turn a site question into comparable development directions
Developers need to test what a location can support before too many assumptions become fixed. 3D Cityplanner connects the visible plan with programme, land use, parking, spatial effects and project indicators.
Understand the site
Combine the location, existing buildings, infrastructure, constraints and relevant GIS data before defining the first proposal.
Generate first options
Create road structures, plots, buildings and housing mixes as editable starting points for development scenarios.
Test programme and density
Compare dwellings, building types, floor area, coverage, density and the spatial organisation of the site.
Include parking and public space
Review parking demand and capacity together with access, greenery and the quality of public space.
Connect spatial and financial assumptions
Relate the scenario to costs, revenues, residual land value and project-specific feasibility indicators.
Explain the proposal clearly
Use one shared 3D model in client meetings, municipal discussions and multidisciplinary project reviews.
Explore more than one development direction
Early development improves when alternatives can be tested quickly rather than defending the first massing study.
- Use existing infrastructure or generate new road and block structures.
- Assign parts of the area to detached, semi-detached, terraced or stacked housing.
- Reserve zones for parking, greenery, public space or other programme elements.
- Use configurable building and housing types, including organisation-specific models.
- Adjust the generated result and keep comparing alternatives.
Keep the figures connected to the visible plan
A scenario should not only look convincing. Its programme, parking, financial assumptions and environmental consequences need to remain visible during review.
- Track dwelling numbers, floor area, density and housing mix.
- Compare parking demand, capacity and land take.
- Review costs, revenues and residual land-value assumptions.
- Use KPIs for greenery, trees, public space, housing and other project goals.
- Assess shadow, sightlines, road-traffic noise and heat stress before further design work.
From first question to a reviewed next step
Use the platform progressively: begin with the site and add detail, assumptions and specialist information as the project develops.
Read the site
Bring together the boundary, context, constraints and available project data.
Create options
Generate or draw several spatial directions with different programme assumptions.
Test feasibility
Compare quantities, parking, financial assumptions, KPIs and environmental effects.
Choose the next direction
Use the shared model to align the development team, client and municipality.
Designed for early comparison, not detailed engineering
3D Cityplanner supports early and area-scale decisions. Detailed architecture, engineering, formal financial models and specialist compliance studies continue in the tools responsible for those disciplines.
