2. Overview Topics - Introduction to CityEngine - Working with CityEngine - Building a city

3. What is CityEngine? Procedurally generate 3D urban content Geometry + Attributes + Rules

4. What is CityEngine? Interactive design in 3D

5. What is CityEngine? Interactive design in 3D

6. What are the uses for CityEngine

7. How is 3D city content created ? (1) Together, geometries, attributes, and procedural rules are used to create 3D urban content Attributes Geometry Rules

8. How is 3D city content created ? (2) Geometries, attributes, and rules result in a procedural city modeling Rule-based 3D cities

9. What is procedural modeling? 3D model creation using rules/algorithms Iterative refinement
