SketchUP

For unit 7 we were asked to use our AutoCAD documents we previously created to be used as an aid in develop a 3D model of our site through the use of SketchUP. Here are some of the images taken directly from the model.

This image is an aerial view of my site:



This image is a perspective view showing the backyard area:


This image is a plan view of the entire site:


This image is a section cut through my site.  This section cut also shows the formation of my vegetated swale.   This green infrastructure is created by the formation of topography sloping upwards around the driveway and home.  This formation of topography creates a small depression where water can be more properly managed in the swale instead of running off the site at a fast rate.
