We want to building a 3D model of our city using our LiDAR data. First steps??
Look here:
Local Government Scenes | ArcGIS for Local Government
Obtaining elevation information for building footprints—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop
Do you have building footprints?
Yes we do.
Then Rickey's suggestion on Local Government Scenes seems like the best course of action. The workflow uses Pro and is very well tested. Here's an example of work I have done with Local Government Scenes:
Nassau County, NY

Fort Bend County, TX

Colors were added to buildings with a tool from my blog:
Arthur’s Feature Extraction from LiDAR, DEMs and Imagery
Arthur Crawford - Esri Content Team
I have used the examples above to build a 3d city for my city. The only part that holds me back from publishing is getting the data from pro to AGOL.
Hi Rickey,
Did you think about MicroStation? This software has an extension which creates 3d model of city very quickly.
We have an Advanced Enterprise license. Is Arc Scene available to us? If not anyone know the cost?
