Berlin TXL Interactive vs Schloss Köthen Usage & Stats

A new piece of the city is growing on the 500-hectare site of the former Berlin-Tegel Airport. In addition to a research and industrial park for urban technology, a residential district for more than 10,000 people is being built for subsequent use. For the construction phase documentation of the original state and further construction phases for the public, as well as an internal tool for better orientation and planning, the development of an application was commissioned, which visualizes terrain topographically correct with all buildings, staffages and vegetation for five different construction phases in digitalized form. The 3D simulation is intended to provide a first insight into the new piece of Berlin and invites users to explore Berlin TXL. The entire airport site can be explored in various ways: a first-person controller simulates walking around the site from the perspective of a passer-by, and a flyover with a free camera enables exploration from the air. The application is enhanced by additional functionalities, such as switching between construction phases, time of day, season and a measurement function. The application was developed by MACINA digital film GmbH & Co. KG and VRTX Labs GmbH on behalf of Tegel Projekt GmbH. Features: - True-to-scale virtual model of the entire Berlin TXL area. - Switching through past, current and future construction phases - Changing seasons and times of day with realistic adjustment of the sun's path and lighting conditions - Measuring function for the exact indication of distances between two measuring points - Experience the application from different angles: a bird's eye view, first person view on the ground and hot air balloons in the sky - View current weather data for Berlin TXL - A detailed help supports you with the navigation and use of the application
