January 19, 20188 yr comment_1424 Hi Has anyone managed to use 3D imagery from Google EarthPro into suitable conversion for PVSOL 2018 to accept in 3D import? Have played around with a few other free mapping tools but does not model roofs like GoogleEarth Pro. Thanks Report
January 19, 20188 yr comment_1428 Hi Stuart, we used to use AutoDesk Remake some months ago while we developed and tested the new feature, but this software is not useable anymore. They also changed the license and so on, so we had to evaluate other alternatives. The colleague who evaluated these tools (i.e. tools to make 3d models out of GoogleEarth Pro to import them into PV*SOL) returns next week from holidays, so he will answer then more in detail. And I think he also prepared a video on that topic. If anyone else has some experience, please post it here! Cheers, Martin Report
January 22, 20188 yr Author comment_1432 Thanks Martin for your reply. I am looking for the automatic "3D" that is mapped when "3D Buildings" layer is selected from inside Google Earth Pro. Would make it a doodle then to add panels to complicated buildings. Report
January 29, 20188 yr comment_1440 Hi Stuart, I am very sorry, but no, right now we have no updates on that topic. We are ourselves figuring out the best solution. Perhaps you find a tutorial on youtube on that topic that works for you. Try searching for "Extract 3D from Google Earth" or something like this. But we'll keep you updated as soon as we have any news. Cheers, Martin Report
April 1, 20215 yr comment_5240 Does the export/import of Google Earth 3D data work now? If so, does anyone have a tutorial or such? Report
