ISS Foresight lets you design accurately-sized construction projects in exact detail. The program combines terrain data, ortho and aerial photographs, CAD and GIS plans, forestry ecosystems data, and 3D models, and turns them into a highly realistic 3D virtual model that is created to scale.

Unlike many CAD applications, ISS Foresight renders your models instantly. This allows you to perform rapid prototyping. You can change your model, and do "what if" analysis, months before real construction takes place. By showing all stakeholders how the project will look, conflicts and problems are raised much earlier in the project life cycle, resulting in huge cost savings.

ISS Foresight users don't need to be 3D specialists to create professional 3D models, simulations, and animations. Design your project in 2D, and the software turns it into a real-time 3D model. After developing the real-time 3D virtual model of your project, you can build computer graphics, photo simulations, and animations from any point of view in the 3D environment. You can even add trees, cars, and other elements to your model.

Whether you need to convince venture capitalists to invest in your new plant or shopping center, impress regulators with your ability to meet statutes and codes for your construction project, assure environmentalists that your project will respect nature, or allay citizens' concerns about the impact of your project on their neighborhood, ISS Foresight has the tools that you need. There is no longer a need to create static artists' sketches or scale models of construction projects. ISS Foresight lets you show people your proposal in 3D real-time.

ISS Foresight v7.0 runs under Windows 7/XP/Vista/2000 and requires Pentium 4, a 128Mb Opengl video card, and 1Gb of memory. A single-user license costs $3,452(US).
