Our approach
- Each building typically houses a single department, so it is
easy to make the buildings act as links to individual departments' Web
pages.
- The campus lies on gently-rolling parkland, with the main buildings
set into a valley; hence, we needed to produce a fair representation of the
ground contours. Being a "red-brick" university, the buildings can be
constructed from polygons.
- Since the architect's drawings were not available in electronic form,
we had to resort to taking measurements from the drawings. Hence, we used
a program to generate the VRML model.
