Model your campus in Mexico using SketchUp
13. srpna 2008
Back in February we told you about the
2008 Model Your Campus Competition
, a call for students to submit 3D models of their college campuses created with
Google SketchUp
. We got submissions from
campuses around the world
, and Mexico stood out with submissions from 13 different campuses. At that time we also ran a parallel contest with a top Mexican school, ITESM (The Technology Institute of Monterrey), and offered a separate prize for the best models submitted by ITESM students. The students come from all over Mexico, so there is a truly national mix of competitors. In total, ITESM participants designed 111 buildings, representing 22 ITESM campuses. All of the submissions will live in a collection within the
Google 3D Warehouse
, an online storage space for all your 3D needs. From
intergalactic space vehicles
to
cucumbers
, the 3D Warehouse is flush with downloadable models made by the SketchUp community.
Last week we announced the
winners of the contest
: David Gómez-Urquiza Madero y Ricardo Pfeiffer Hurtado, both students of
Mechatronics
at ITESM's Santa Fe Campus. Since a digital Earth needs some digital buildings, we're thrilled that ITESM students have submitted their designs to create a more livable Google Earth-the winning models will be included in the 3D Buildings Layers of Google Earth. The school leadership plan on encouraging students to construct detailed 3D models of all 33 ITESM campuses, and the contest will return for another run next year. Here's to the winners!
