About this software

PlaceMaker is a plugin for SketchUp and an add-in for Revit that imports geospatial data into 3D models. It brings high-resolution aerial imagery, terrain, 3D building massings, roads, trees, water bodies, and textured mesh cities into projects. Data sources include Mapbox, Nearmap, Cesium terrain, OpenStreetMap, and Hexagon. The product uses a credits-based pay-as-you-go or subscription model for data imports, and SmartSite AI surveys are offered separately.
