In the Istanbul district of Bayrampasa, the untapped area of a former prison is to be rebuilt. It is planned to erect 2200 apartments, shops, schools and a large mosque. The department of urban development of the city administration has therefore commissioned UVM Systems with a 3D visualisation of the project area, which was created using CityGRID^®. The existing 3D city model has been improved around the planning area by a detailed presentation of the facades and the road area. In scope of the former prison, the terrain model had to be refined, the planned terracing had to be worked in and the new roads, trains and bridges were modelled. A new shopping centre, schools and the planned residential buildings were modelled and inserted into the scene.
