The easy way of converting 2D AutoCAD to 3D Urban Massing in SketchUp

In this video we show you how to quicky create data-rich 3D massing models in SketchUp based on the 2D DXF/DWG files.
Outline:
0:00 Intro
0:50 Importing DXF/DWG
1:48 Housekeeping (scaling, organizing model)
4:40 Geolocating the model
5:30 Geolocating imported DWG (via OSM buildings)
7:07 Clearing the redundant context
9:14 Creating city blocks and massing using SketchUp native tools
10:35 Creating city blocks using Modelur
12:00 Updating city blocks parameters
13:00 Creating buildings using Modelur
13:35 Matching FAR of city block
15:25 Adding new land use
16:30 Creating mixed-use buildings
18:05 Slicer to split building in two
Thank you to Aleksander Vujović & his team for providing us with a sample DXF file!
