Reviving Italy based L’Aquila city with Sketchup 3D modeling software

The residents of l’Aquila, Italy had experienced a powerful earthquake which took off the lives of Three hundred and eight people. This earthquake almost damaged the entire city and surrounding areas.

The renowned British architect, Barnaby Gunning is going to create a digital 3D model of the city by utilizing Sketchup, the masterpiece software from Google. For this purpose Mr Barnaby launched a website known as Comefacciamo (“What can we do?”) to get in touch with and organize volunteers.

Simone Nicolò, SketchUp Software Engineer already visited the city and provides geo-modeling classes to revitalize the city.

The modeling phase of the project is going in a full phase and the sketchup users from all over the world can take part in the project to extend the volunteer services for creating models for the city.

Google has added L’Aquila to the list of places where everybody can utilize Google Building Maker to generate geo-models.
