After each change, the entire 3D model gets saved to a central location, where all of the revisions remain accessible and can be browsed and taken as starting point for future modifications. Using collaborative design, each one of them can add components and refine the object in an iterative process. To understand its usefulness, imagine a case where several planners work on a 3D object, let’s say a building. Even entire cities have been “archived” in 3D using the Warehouse. Also, building and other component manufacturers have added design specifications for their products which in turn enables seamlessly embedding them into the planning process. Designers can share 3D models, assembly plans and a whole lot more in a central, searchable and browsable location. So far, 3D Warehouse has been a great addition to Google’s SketchUp software product. Reading the latest announcement from the Google SketchUp Blog, I feel that 3D Warehouse has now ascended to a whole new level – namely the realm of collaborative 3D design.
