Uzufly

For urban projects, public consultation is a key stage during which future constructions are presented to local communities to ensure projects are tailored to the population’s requirements and wishes. However, current 2D plans or computer-generated imagery methods only provide a very limited representation of future construction projects to local communities. To maximize project approval rates and ensure the population has access to valuable information, Uzufly, an EPFL spin-off, delivers ultra-photorealistic 3D digital models generated from aerial methods (such as drones) and integrates the designs of future constructions within their designated area. Those 3D models provide a realistic understanding of the volume and architecture of planned projects, with a project scope ranging from a single building to an entire city or canton. Furthermore, those highly detailed 3D models can be converted to technical drawings and topographic surveys to support architects and construction engineers in their work.
