REALIZATION'S PROCESS
- Begin by starting Autodesk Vasari and creating a "New" File, then adjust the "Project Unit" from inches to meter in the "Manage" TAB (convert every setting to the metric decimal units).
- In order to set your study area's location click "Set Location" (right side of the interface's bottom), write city and addres, frame properly the map and click "Import Site Image".
The study area is located in Via Roberto Alessandri (Monteverde neighborhood). My apartment is situated in a five floors building.
- Next step consists in extruding significant buildings by using the map. Click on "Create Mass" (Model TAB) and then use the line to draw the buildings' profile (Vasari helps with SNAPs reported to other lines or to the map). After creating polylines we can use selection to adjust the building's height by sliding on Z axis.
All the buildings extruded in my study follow, more or less, regular forms and they don't cross the limit of 5 floors (17-22 m).
- To close the scene setting we have to look at the interface's low side menu where the Sun Settings can be changed or activated. In our model we have to create the actual conditions recorded in the photos by setting data and time. Beside the sun icon we find shadow's one (activated by click on it).
