CityEngine does have a tool, to help with the task. However some manual cleanup work can't be avoided. Use the Fit Street Widths to Shapes tool to correct the street width and offset. For the bonus question: Streets with lanes that are separated (e.g. a row of trees) are modeled as two one way streets. At intersections the nodes of these streets are too close together. If the option "Run Graph Cleanup Tool after Import" is activated in the OSM importer, the nodes are merged. This leads to the bended streets. The option needs be be turned off and the street and sidewalk width needs to be manually adjusted to enable the street shape creation. Conflict on the left, resolved on the right

Hello April, You have created a DSM with Drone2Map. CityEngine does support import of image based terrain data. Please follow the steps to create a Terrain Layer in CityEngine Help. If you want to add 3D data from Drone2Map, I suggest georeferencing the drone2map OBJs or FBXes in CityEngine. 1. use your DSM or "File > Get Map Data..." to download the surveyed area 2. import the drone2map export as static model (drag file into scene) 3. use the translation tool to fit the model into the map CityEngine does not support import of SLPKs.

Hello Jim, thank you for providing such a detailed report. Normally the street network shows up white, like other shapes, that have no rule attached. No quite sure, why this does not happen in your case. But anyway I suggest to add the esri.lib rule file Street_Modern_Simple.cga to your streets.

Hi Robert, in an standard CityEngine installation the RPK referenced in the example does not exist. This is the reason the "Select file for upload..." dialog pops up. Please verify in your script, that the file intended for upload does exist by using: import os.path
os.path.exists(ce.toFSPath(workspacePath))

Q: Is there a reason for using the .JP2 not .JPG? A: JP2 ( JPEG 2000 - Wikipedia ) does for instance feature 16 bit encoding. So there are reasons to use JP2s for storing terrain information. CityEngine however does not support JP2, the images need to be converted to IMG/TIFF/PNG in an external tool. Q: They select a handful of files associated with the DEM data (after processing in Arcmap) and copy into maps folder in CE. Are the only two files needed the .TIF and .TFW file you mention above? A: Yes, *.TIF and *.TFW and image file with the same extend as texture. When the georeference is embedded in the terrain image file the world file *.TFW is not needed.

Hi Simon, great to see you already hat a look into the tutorials, e.g.: Tutorial 2: Terrain and dynamic city layouts—CityEngine Tutorials | ArcGIS Desktop Question 1: You can check the cursor's elevation in the Navigation Display at the bottom of the viewport: Question 2: The georeference of the terrain is given by the TIF and TFW file. The terrain texture is just added on top of the terrain. So the only requirement is, that the extend is exactly the same. There is no need to have the same resolution in both image files.

Hi, To customize the CityEngine web viewer you need to host your own version. This GeoNet thread handles the issue: How to download the CityEngine Web Viewer? The Web Viewer is stored in ce.lib in CityEngine workspace folder Exit CityEngine locate your CityEngine workspace in the file system (usually $USERFOLDER/CityEngine) locate ce.lib in CityEngine workspace folder inside this folder, create a back-up of the current webviewer/ (e.g. rename to webviewer_previous/) then you can start customizing

Thank you for the feedback! The LumenRT export has been removed in CityEngine 2015. It was decided that the plugin gives more value to the user. Unfortunately there is a long delay between the release of CityEngine and the new version of the LumenRT plugin. This problem will be addressed by the CityEngine Team.

Hi The plugin is developed and maintained by Bentley LumenRT. Did you use the latest plugin? Generally it has to support the version of CityEngine you are using. New version available - Bentley LumenRT CONNECT Update 1 - Tech Preview - Getting Started with Bentley LumenRT Technolog… Can you specify what exactly is not working properly?

In the FGDBImportSettings you find the option: setDatasetFilter(self, datasetPaths) Set a list of dataset paths to include in the import. If empty (= default), all valid datasets will be imported. datasetPaths: List of case-sensitive dataset paths (using forward slash as delimiter), e.g. ['/MyFeatureDatataset/Parcels'] . This allows to filter for specific layers.
