Recently, a virtual interactive map based on Unity 3D Engine was completed by three students of SIT 2010 class.

Such virtual map boosts the functions like campus tour, navigation, landmark introduction and university introduction, etc. the virtual map, modeled on 3DMax, takes Unity 3D Game Engine as its developer’s platform and uses the website modeling resources for beautification. This virtual map is available on different operation platform, such as PC, website and mobile.

The principal architecture model includes Liyun Building, Library, Centennial Plaza, Yuehua Living Quarters, Haihua Living Quarters, Yanhua Living Quarters, Jinghua Living Quarters, Jingshi Residence, Leyu Building, Chuanmei Building, Zonghe Building, Statium, Lize Building, No.1 Canteen, No.2 Canteen and No.3 Canteen.

The project takes half a year to complete. The major workload has been put on the study and modeling of terrain. With the vast campus area, it is difficult to create a vivid 3D model. However, with 3 months hard work and based on the field study, satellite map and their knowledge about the campus, students of SIT 2010 class worked out a map with the terrain and landscape as close as to the real one.
