As global leaders in Facility GIS, PenBay understands the value of including buildings in your core GIS data, and also the unique benefits of understanding this data as it actually exists in real life, in 3D. This is not about flying around a 3D city, it’s about adding another dimension to your GIS to support real end user applications. PenBay provides the complete 3D Basemap, along with a number of plug-and-play applications that can utilize it out of the box.
Instant Cost-Effective 3D Capability
Delivered via Geodatabase, this off-the-shelf data can immediately upgrade your GIS to full 3D, giving you access to a range of Esri spatial analysis functions. Our 3D approach is simple: start with a focus on business value instead of eye-candy, and texture only when you absolutely need to. With this approach we have eliminated the cost barrier to entry, enabling nearly anyone to get up and running quickly and efficiently. Buy coverage of your entire city, or start with a single tile.
More than just 3D
The 3D Basemap is not just a set of 3D Buildings, it also includes a number of GIS datasets which support different types of 2D and 3D applications:
- High quality 3D Building Multipatch
- Building Footprints
- Detailed Roof-parts feature classes
- Superstructure feature classes
- Solar potential and measurement attribution
How to Buy
Much like other GIS data, 3D Basemaps are sold in convenient modular tiles. You can purchase tiles for your entire city, or just a pilot area to test it out. Tiles are available in 1sqkm or 5sqkm sizes, and you can check availability and pricing using our map based estimator today.
