A Closer Look
The Problem: Most of the data behind 3D models are hidden behind schedules and lists. It makes it hard to see any useful patterns in the data
The Approach: A script that takes any 3D model and allows anyone to colour code and visualise a property
The Outcome: A clear and visual way to digest the data. Especially useful for reports and communicating the data
3D models have a lot of data hidden in them. The only real way to access them is through schedules or tables. Which is nice but it’s still hard to make sense of the data. This is especially true if you’re trying to get some overall information from models.
So instead of uploading a model into an external program to visualize these properties, I wrote a script in Grasshopper that does this. And because I have a system setup in Grasshopper, whipping up a script like this takes almost no time.
