[Opensim-dev] TSB Feasibility Study: Online Virtual Worlds for Urban Regeneration Consultation

[Cristina Videira Lopes]

On this topic, I am involved with a company that is doing exactly that 
-- using virtual worlds (OpenSim in particular) to model urban planning 
projects.
The terraingen tool is part of that, but we're focusing on the dynamics 
of urban areas, traffic mostly. You can see the beginnings of that in a 
demo I put up in the UCI Grid -- see 
http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Second_Birthday for how to visit. (once 
there, click on the panel in the middle of the road)
