The teaching team has created Revit site models that you link into your project models to provide the context that surrounds your site:
- terrain / topography
- terrain images
- adjacent building masses
- roads and paths
- water elements
These models are available to link to as Cloud Revit models in your team’s Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) project folder. From within the Revit application use the Insert > Link Revit command, then navigate to this folder:
Project Files > Cloud Revit Models > Site Context
You can use these models as-is (using the Hidden Line display option), but they will be much more informative if you complete the following steps to provide you with access to the map images. After you’ve completed these steps, turn on the Realistic display option to see the images draped on the topography.
You can also explore the sites and the surrounding context in Google Earth, by searching for these approximate project site addresses:
