Montréal 2025 now a 3-DS model owing to the know-how of a Québec city business
Tuesday, October 11, 2005 ¾ Graph Synergie, a Québec city business, was entrusted by the city of Montréal with a major geomatic, simulation and representation project of the future 2025 city of Montréal, as it can be foreseen nowadays. The “Imagining and Building Montréal 2025” project has already been initiated and Montréal in 2025 can be viewed by way of 20 Flash capsules available on the Ville de Montréal Website.
Graph-iVIEW is the application developed by Graph Synergie with which projects can be viewed ahead of time; this allows for consultations on which city leaders can base their decisions with regard to the future development of the City. This innovative tool is a powerful interactive application; it is a 3-D virtual model in real time that relies on GIS data such as aerial orthophotos of the Montréal territory, the topography of the island and a 3-D built environment just to name a few.
To illustrate the potential and scope of Graph-iVIEW, the following elements were integrated as the many possible layers of information that end-users are able to select: the overall plan of the city of Montréal including the development of the city centre, the mass public transit network and road network, the metro stations and commuter train stations, the development of the cycle track, the riverside cycle path and the village centres, along with living environments to revitalize, ecoterritories, the centre hospitalier universitaire McGill project and so on.
“This tool has phenomenal possibilities”, declared Gérald Tremblay, mayor of Montréal, when revealing the details of the “Imagining and Building Montréal 2025” project a few days ago. Intended for the city technical services, this management tool unique in Canada enables improving planning and facilitates analysing interventions to carry out within the City. Municipal administration can assess more efficiently the impact of development projects submitted to the City as much on the local level, for instance with regard to municipal boroughs, as that of integrated territorial development. Far more than a simple management tool, this application is a promotional and communication tool, and an international showcase of Montréal through which the City will be able to submit a multitude of development possibilities throughout the entire island with the “project” data record and the 3-D model, and provide information in real time for these opportunities.
All in all, Montrealers now have access to a great means for understanding the building and evolution of their society, owing to the entire team of Graph Synergie (www.graphsynergie.com) and its Graph-iVIEW application specially designed for urban development.
Québec, le lundi 27 avril 2005 –
C’est un vent de changement et d’évolution qui vous présente Graph Synergie :
L’expertise développée par Graph Architecture dans le monde de l'aménagement au cours des 8 dernières années amène l’entreprise à offrir aujourd’hui des services beaucoup plus complets et globaux. Par le déploiement de cette nouvelle offre dans le marché, Graph Architecture devient Graph Synergie et proposera 3 divisions complémentaires.
L’architecture 3D continuera d’occuper le premier plan des travaux quotidiens sous le nom de Graph Architecture. D’autre part, la division Média proposera la réalisation de projets ayant des objectifs plus communicationnels tel que la conception et la réalisation de DVD corporatif ou promotionnel, l’organisation de lancement de produit ou encore le développement d’outil de support à la vente. De son côté la division Technologies poursuivra son offre de logiciel de gestion extranet (le point .GO) dont plusieurs clients en font déjà l’utilisation depuis le début de 2003 et tout dernièrement, la mise en services de nouvelles applications de réalité virtuelle, Graph-iMANAGE (application client-serveur de gestion de données 3D), Graph-iLIGHT (application de visualisation de luminaires en temps réel) et Graph-iVIEW (outil de visualisation 3D temps réel sans limitation de taille).
S’adressant aux décideurs de l'aménagement, aux promoteurs, aux professionnels de la construction et de l’immobilier, Graph Synergie possède tous les atouts pour globaliser son offre et répondre de façon plus complète à ses clients.
Voici quelques clients et réalisations de Graph Synergie (www.graphsynergie.com) :
Hôtel Sofitel, Montréal : Services d'analyse 3D et de création 3D d'outils promotionnels;
Sepaq, Chutes Montmorency : Services multimédia de support à la vente du projet de revitalisation du site;
RABASKA, Lévis : Ensemble de services 3D voués à l'analyse, à la simulation d'impact visuelle et à la promotion du projet;
BPR Groupe conseils : Simulation d'impact 3D pour les projets d'autoroute 25, 30-15 et 410;
SAAQ : Analyse et simulation d'ambiances physiques (lumière, son) des nouveaux aménagements du Centre de services Henri-Bourassa à Montréal.
Graph est mandaté par Rabaska pour élaborer l'ensemble des bases de données et pour tous les outils de communication techniques du projet. Quelques éléments du travail de Graph peuvent être consultés sur le site de Rabaska.net
Le projet Rabaska
Élaboré par Société en commandite Gaz Métro, Enbridge inc. et Gaz de France, trois leaders dans le domaine du transport et de la distribution de gaz naturel, le projet Rabaska consiste à construire, en eau profonde et au coût de plus de 700 millions de dollars, un terminal capable d’accueillir des navires appelés méthaniers qui transportent à leur bord du gaz naturel liquéfié (GNL). Ce GNL est par la suite stocké et regazéifié pour être injecté dans le réseau de transport de gaz naturel du Québec et de l'Ontario.
C'est officiel, ce projet marque la première incursion officiel de Graph Synergie en Chine. La participation de Graph dans le projet a permis à TIR Systems de Vancouver, de conclure une entente de réalisation du projet de mise en lumière de la tour principale du Galaxy Park. Vous pouvez lire le communiqué de presse de TIR (compagnie publique TSE:TIR) à l'adresse suivante:TIR Systems Ltd.
La Tour (Full Moon Tower at Galaxy Park), d'une hauteur de 52 mètres (170 feet), est situé dans un parc d'amusement de Tianjin, une ville portuaire de plus de 10 million de citoyens située à environ 200 km au sud-est de Beijing.
Graph Architecture se rapproche de plus en plus vers une incursion en sol chinois.
En effet, l'entreprise vient tout juste de livrer un deuxième mandat d'étude préliminaire pour le Galaxy Park de Tianjin, troisième plus grosse ville en Chine. Une première phase conceptuelle a déjà eu lieu un peu plus tôt cette année (voir article suivant: DES CONTRATS EN CHINE ET AUX ÉMIRATS-ARABES
En partenariat avec TIR Systems de Vancouver, Graph a dévéloppé un concept qui prend son inspiration d'une symphonie en quatre temps. Cette phase de travail propose un concept de mise en lumière pour la tour principale du site.
Les deux partenaires ont uni leurs expertises pour démontrer aux autorités locales de la force de l'équipe de livrer ce projet. Les partenaires visent par la suite d'obtenir le mandat de mise en lumière de l'ensemble du parc urbain. Un dossier à suivre.
Graph Architecture vient de terminer la première phase de deux importants projets de mise en lumière en Chine et aux Émirats-arabes.
Réalisés en partenariat avec la compagnie manufacturière TIR Systems de Vancouver, ces deux mandats confirment Graph comme une vedette montante en mise en lumière et ouvrent la porte à d'importants travaux supplémentaires pour 2004-2005.
La première phase du projet de Galaxy Park situé à Tianjin, troisième ville d'importance en Chine, reposent sur une démonstration conceptuelle utilisant les produits d'éclairage de TIR. Le groupe est présentement en attente de la seconde phase du projet. Le projet global est évalué à environ 6 M$ dollars US.
Le projet du Palm Tree Bridge de Dubai a aussi permis une démonstration technique des produits de TIR. Ce projet est maintenant dans une phase de spécifications techniques. Graph attend avec impatience la deuxième étape dans ce projet évalué à 1,5 M$ dollars US.
TIR Systems est un leader dans l'industrie de fabrication d'appareil d'éclairage utilisant des diodes électro-illuminescentes (LED). Afin de soutenir sa forte croissance à l'international, TIR a choisi Graph Architecture comme partenaire technique de conception et de simulation sur deux de ces derniers projets d'éclairage.
