Well quite simply with simple mass models and that means extrusions from a 2D polygon (representing in this case a footprint). Here we then can add a simple split and some tests against each resulting floor volume. At each of these floor volumes we can then add reporting so when we place our footprints we can instantly interact with each model to raise and lower heights\/floors as well as showing live\/dynamic metrics in a dashboard within the interface. What this means is we can generate very quickly numerous scenarios with an understanding of floor areas and massing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.geoplanit.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Dashboards.png?resize=359%2C322&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6106\" width=\"359\" height=\"322\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Okay now the shameless plug: Did you know I am a CityEngine instructor trainer?
