See the context
By combining high-resolution terrain data, housing databases, and beautifully crafted 3D models, Arkwiz provides a first-person view of how an architectural project fits within its surroundings.
Ingredients
The landscape
We sample high-resolution terrain models supplied by The Norwegian Mapping Authority (Kartverket). Geolocalization makes sure the view from your project is accurate to the finest detail.
The building
Based on your references and existing BIM models, we recreate your architectural projects. Fully furnished and decorated to match your brand, the 3D models are stored online in our Building Catalogue.
The neighbors
By referencing 3D buildings provided by the joint mapping service FKB, the area surrounding your project is populated with the structures that already exist in your area
On any device
Arkwiz runs via pixel streaming. The user visits a web page through any browser, and all the heavy lifting is done by a server in the cloud. This way, we can deliver state-of-the-art graphic fidelity with near-photoreal realism, on any device. The only requirement is a decent internet connection, preferably WiFi.
Mac or PC
The main application runs on all windows computers, from the average office laptop to powerful rigs with high quality graphics cards. Walk around the building in first person, or assess the situation from a birds eye view.
Smart phone or tablet
Our application automatically detects connections from touch devices, and provides intuitive and simple navigation.
Built on the Unreal Engine 5 engine, Arkwiz visualizes your project at the highest level of detail.
Easy to use
Choose the location
Open the application, select the project location, and the app downloads the surrounding terrain and structures.
Edit the area
Prepare the plot by sculpting the terrain and removing existing buildings.
Place your building
Choose, download, and place your building into its surroundings.
The entire project
Populate entire neighborhoods and understand how each building works in context with its environment. Make your project publicly available, and download the projects of other users in the area.
Import Reality
By ordering a drone based 3D scan of your area of interest, you’ll be able to work from a detailed capture with all proportions preserved. Check and see if we have drone pilots available in your area
