Analysis overview

Analysing and evaluating a design is an essential part of an iterative design process to ensure that qualitative and quantitative requirements are met. CityEngine offers a variety of tools for this.

Dashboards

Visualize quantitative information about CGA models using real-time charts. See Dashboards for more information.

Scenarios

You can create multiple variations, or scenarios, of a design proposal in one scene. Dashboards are scenario aware and can display data from multiple scenarios at once.

Measurement tools

Measure distances and areas in 3D.

Visibility analysis

Create Viewsheds and View Domes to identify areas that are visible/invisible from a given viewpoint interactively. Create a View Corridor to identify geometry that blocks the view. See Visibility analysis for more information.
