3-D aerial imagery from Nearmap provides tools
to measure distances, determine slope, discover building footprints
and more, taking guesswork out of 3-D models
Nearmap, a leading provider of high-resolution aerial imagery,
is strengthening HNTB’s ability to create lifelike, 3-D, HD-quality
visuals and models to win business against larger competitors.
Using Nearmap’s timely and accurate aerial imagery throughout the
entire proposal pipeline helps HNTB be more accurate and more
efficient in competing for large, complex architecture,
construction and engineering (ACE) projects.

“Assessing orthographic and panoramic views, the ability to
measure slopes and footprints of buildings, and to accurately
measure building height – that all used to be guesswork for us,”
said Austin Reed, 3D visualization team lead for HNTB. “Nearmap
gives us the ability to get data we want when we want it, 24/7, and
at a phenomenal level of detail.”
Previous imagery required more work to model and retouch
animations, because the resolution wasn’t a clear as what Nearmap
delivers. Nearmap 3-D aerial imagery provides HNTB with 360 degree
panorama views, along with detailed orthographic images and the
tools to measure distances and heights, determine slope angles, and
document building footprints, which was previously guesswork for
the team.
“To win business, we have to be faster, more efficient and do it
better,” said James Pageau, senior media design leader at HNTB.
“Nearmap’s image quality from tile to tile is more consistent and
current, so our team can produce beautiful and accurate models for
our clients with a lot less work. We’re more efficient in our
modeling and there’s less retouch in our animations. It’s changed
the way we work.”
HNTB uses aerial imagery as the foundation of creating visuals
and animations throughout the entire pipeline of proposals and
projects. The most important aspect of aerial maps for HNTB is that
they are up to date and highly detailed. Nearmap aerial imagery
improves the team’s overall process by giving them accurate data
that they can integrate directly into engineered drawings.
“Nobody else in the industry is providing imagery that is as
uniform and consistent as Nearmap,” said Pageau.
HNTB is an employee-owned infrastructure solutions firm that
employs more than 4,000 professionals who deliver award-winning
planning, design, program management and construction management
services.
