Photorealistic 3D models for efficient urban planning
Reduce the time, effort, and cost for urban development projects, for better and more livable cities
Smarter, faster, better informed and more collaborative urban planning
Save time, today and tomorrow
Get a photorealistic 3D model of your area of interest in next to no time. Our 3D models can be rapidly created and reused, adapted and extended for various development needs.
The perfect tool for your internal development or local planning revision.
Improve decision-making
Visualize development projects in your neighborhood by adding your own data, designs, and construction templates to your municipality’s 3D model.
Make more informed decisions that ensure better results and higher satisfaction among your residents.
Involve and inspire
Involve all parties in the project or affected by it in the planning process. Test different project variations to create transparency and find out how they would impact your community.
Communicate compelling and inspiring stories using our vivid 3D visualizations.
Limitations of current tools
2D maps and plans
The lack of the third dimension in 2D maps and plans makes them less useful as evidence in building objections, because they fail to properly visualize the spatial impact of the building in its surroundings.
Photo renderings
Traditional building objections to prove for example a project’s impact on a lake view or the perception of the volumetric impact on a neighborhood are still very costly.
Abstract 3D models
Models provided by public open data from the municipality do not give a good understanding of the building’s impact on its surroundings.

How real-world 3D models improve and speed-up building permit cases
Realistic view impact evaluations
Evaluate the view impact of a new building and provide all parties with a human perspective of how a project will impact their experience, as realistic as if they were already there.
Simplified feasibility studies with volumetric models
Keep stakeholders and communities visually informed to provide transparency and promote acceptance.
Enhanced legal communication
A better communication tool to reduce the amount of pleas and objections and speed up case resolutions at low cost.
Use case: the Municipality of Fällanden
The Swiss municipality of Fällanden (ZH) leveraged 3D models for their communal development project to offer their population an interactive visualization of the newly planned buildings. Thanks to the resulting clarity, they achieved a faster and more participatory decision-making process.
Use case: the Municipality of Sirnach
The Swiss municipality of Sirnach communicated the new guiding principle for uniform spatial planning to its population, using Nomoko’s 3D services.
