Bring 3D buildings from Google Earth to Sketchup
Introduction
Have you ever wanted to create a stunning 3D model from a real-world location? Do you want to use the power of Google Earth to create a 3D model of a building or a bridge? With the help of Sketchup, you can do just that. With Sketchup, you can easily import 3D buildings from Google Earth and create a stunning 3D model of a real-world location. This tutorial will show you how to do just that.
Step 1: Download and Install Sketchup
The first step to creating a 3D building from Google Earth is to download and install Sketchup. Sketchup is a 3D modeling software that allows you to create a 3D model from a real-world location. You can download the software from the Sketchup website. Once you have downloaded and installed the software, you will be ready to start creating your 3D model.
Step 2: Find a Location in Google Earth
The next step is to find a location in Google Earth that you would like to turn into a 3D model. To do this, simply type in the address of the location you are interested in and Google Earth will take you to the location. You can then explore the location and see what 3D buildings you would like to import into Sketchup. Once you have found the location, you can save the location so that you can easily go back to it later.
Step 3: Transfer the Location to Sketchup
The third step is to transfer the location from Google Earth to Sketchup. To do this, you will need to use the Google Earth Plugin for Sketchup. This plugin allows you to import 3D buildings from Google Earth into Sketchup. Once you have installed the plugin, you can simply open the location in Google Earth, click on the “Import” button, and select the 3D buildings you want to transfer to Sketchup. The plugin will then transfer the 3D buildings to Sketchup and you will be ready to start creating your 3D model.
Step 4: Create Your 3D Model
Once you have transferred the 3D buildings to Sketchup, you can start creating your 3D model. With Sketchup, you can easily add textures, materials, and other details to your 3D model. You can also use the tools in Sketchup to adjust the size and shape of the 3D buildings you imported from Google Earth. Once you have finished creating your 3D model, you can save it and easily share it with others.
Conclusion
Creating a 3D model from a real-world location has never been easier. With Sketchup and the Google Earth Plugin, you can easily import 3D buildings from Google Earth and create a stunning 3D model. This tutorial has shown you how to do just that. So, if you are looking to create amazing 3D models from real-world locations, then Sketchup and the Google Earth Plugin are the perfect tools for the job.
