Within less than one second, this amazing new script Automatically and Simultaneously creates accurate survey points in the scene, based on the surveyor’s information.
With one simple click, this new 3ds max script, will save users countless hours of work per verified view, or days, if working on multiple camera views.
Creating verified views for planning applications has never been easier, quicker and more accurate.
Key 3ds Max Script features instantly/automatically created simultaneously
with one click:
1-Accurately creates and places the survey point coordinates
in the 3ds Max scene instantly using/sourcing the data from the surveyor and
the photographer’s data spreadsheet.
2- Accurately creates and places the physical camera in the
3ds Max scene instantly using/sourcing the data from the surveyor and the photographer’s
data spreadsheet.

3ds Max scene instantly using/sourcing the data from the surveyor and the photographer’s
data spreadsheet.
4- Accurately creates, names and places the physical camera in
the 3ds Max scene instantly using/sourcing the data from the surveyor and the photographer’s
data spreadsheet.
5- Accurately sets up the render Output Size and padlocks it

*Latest Updates for this 3ds Max Script :
The script now looks at a folder named "images" to directly source the camera viewport background image from. The settings.csv file NO LONGER has the " viewport_background_image" column to enter the directory and file name.
So, users can simply place/replace and rename any viewport background image file in the "images" folder. The folders named "images" and "settings" CANNOT BE RENAMED though.
The Full 3ds Max script comes with the following:
1-The 3ds Max script
2-The "settings" spreadsheet file with the scene's settings data (*.csv)
3-The surveyor's "Survey_Data_Coordinates" spreadsheet file (*.csv)
4-The surveyor's background image for view 6
5-The folders/directory already setup
Key Notes:
The 3ds Max script requires two
separate spreadsheet files in order to instantly generate the entire scene with
accurate survey data points, physical camera, background image, daylight system, etc:
1-One spreadsheet file with survey
coordinates
2-Another spreadsheet file with
the scene settings.
The spreadsheet file formats need to be *.csv, otherwise the 3ds Max script will generate errors when running.
The folders and file names cannot
have spaces between the words. Use underscores instead. Otherwise, the 3ds Max
script will generate errors when running.
The surveyor’s coordinate spreadsheet file with survey coordinates needs to be in the same folder as the 3ds Max script.
The spreadsheet file named settings.csv needs to be in separate folder named “settings”. The folder names CANNOT be renamed.
The csv file names can be renamed according to their project names (e.g. V6_scene_settings.csv) .
There can only be one main spreadsheet csv file in each of the folders the 3ds max script will be referencing from.

Key Aspects of Verified Views
"Verified Views" are distinct from standard artistic photomontages due to a rigorous, data-driven process:
- Survey Data: The process involves a professional surveyor recording the exact camera location, height, lens details, GPS data, and specific key points in the physical environment.
- Accurate 3D Model Alignment: This survey data is used to accurately align a detailed 3D model of the proposed development within the real-world photograph, ensuring correct scale, perspective, and spatial relationships.
- Council Compliance: This methodology ensures the final image is a robust and defensible representation of the proposed development, which is often a key requirement for local authorities when assessing visual impact.
Companies work with architects, developers, and planning consultants to produce the necessary documentation to aid in securing planning approvals.
