ArcGIS CityEngine SDKs (C++)
A C++ SDK for integrating CityEngine's procedural 3D modeling engine into custom plugins and standalone applications.
What is ArcGIS CityEngine SDKs (C++)?
The CityEngine SDK is a C++ software development kit that provides access to the Procedural Runtime (PRT), the core geometry generation engine of Esri's CityEngine. It allows developers to create custom plugins for CityEngine and build standalone applications that can execute CGA procedural modeling rules. This enables the automation of 3D model generation from initial shapes and rule packages without requiring the full CityEngine software.
C++ developers and technical artists working in urban design, visual effects, VR/AR, or cultural heritage who need to integrate procedural 3D modeling into their custom tools or existing 3D software pipelines.
It provides direct, licensed access to CityEngine's battle-tested procedural geometry engine, allowing for high-quality, rule-based 3D content generation within bespoke applications. Developers choose it to avoid rebuilding complex procedural systems from scratch and to ensure compatibility with the broader CityEngine ecosystem.
Overview
CityEngine is a 3D city modeling software for urban design, visual effects, and VR/AR production. With its C++ SDK you can create plugins and standalone apps capable to execute CityEngine CGA procedural modeling rules.
