Abstract
3D models in the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector are becoming bigger by the day, yet AEC professionals still need to be able to federate and collaborate on such massive 3D scenes over the Internet. In this case study, we present the 3D Repo Infinite Geometry Streaming solution on the 40 Leadenhall Street project, the largest construction to ever receive a planning permission in the City of London. Over 100 GB of raw geometry has been processed and stored in the cloud while all the visibility calculations were performed client-side for seamless real-time exploration of the continuous 3D space.
