  1. I'm just trying to import some terrain that looks roughly like the hill that I live on from public data sources with as little effort as possible. For example, this is how it works in Sketch Up.
  2. Yeah I am not an architect. I am just a guy who is going to bulldoze his house and build a new one and I want to sketch out some ideas for our architect and play with some 3D models of what things could look like. The default starting place in Chief Architect seems to be a flat terrain or no terrain. Would be cool if they had a feature where I could just type in my home address and get a rough site map, sourced from public data.
  3. Hi. I'm totally new to Chief Architect. I'm trying to find a public source of topologic data and then import that into Chief Architect to get a piece of terrain that looks like my lot. I think the USGS and possibly other online sources (like google maps) make this information available for free. If I load my home address up in Google Earth, there's a surprisingly high res model of my neighborhood. I want to import the whole thing into Chief Architect so I can trace my rough floor plan and do renders with the surrounding environment in view. Has anyone gone down this route before and where did they source the data in a format that Chief Architect can import?
