3D Model of Detroit, MI
Accurate & Usable city centre models to fit your needs
3D city model of Detroit, Michigan is the AccuCities’ first city mapping project outside Europe is in the USA. It is the latest addition to our 3D cities library. All urban landscape features were 3D mapped from the latest aerial survey data from 2020 using manual stereophotogrammetry. Models are delivered as digital downloads in a variety of the most common file formats used by architects and urban designers.
3D Model of Detroit Features
The 3D dataset has been manually captured from the 2018 High-Res imagery by our team of skilled technicians using stereophotogrammetry. High-detail model is accurate to 15cm (6 inches) in all axes with all roof features such as chimneys, parapet walls and dorm windows captured with the correct shape and tilt. The Detroit City Centre 3D Model has been originally captured for an urban AI/machine learning project.
Real estate developers, architects and city planners are the usual customers for our 3D city models. In combination with Plan.city, this 3D city model gives our US customers some of the most advanced urban design tools straight out of the box. Read the latest Case Studies.

Level 3 models (High Detail)
Mostly used in planning, environmental and building consultancy services, development proposals, wind studies, context for architectural and BIM models, real estate, marketing, high-end architectural visualisation, CGI, animations & High-End 3D printing.
3D models are distributed under company-wide, multiple-use licence which covers the use of the 3D model for 5 years. We grant to the User a worldwide, non-exclusive licence to use the 3D Model to unlimited number of Derived products (renders, animations), Incorporated products (Interactive Application, import into custom software), conduct In-house work and use 3D Model data for Physicalization such as 3D printing.
Customers cannot distribute, alter to distribute or re-engineer the 3D model in any way. Read full EULA here.
AccuCities 3D London app is now Plan.City! Please get in touch and we will be happy to set up a meeting to demo the app.
Both Level 2 and Level 3 3D Models are manually captured from latest aerial imagery available for the area of interest.
Level 2 3D Models are accurate to 50 cm in all axis. The 3D Model is very light and low poly. Buildings are captured with correct roof shapes of main structures with only chimneys, parapet walls and dormer windows omitted. Terrain is accurate to 20 cm and separated into land use categories. Trees locations (captured with correct height and canopy width) are also included.
Level 3 3D Models are accurate to 15 cm in all axis. Buildings are captured with correct roof shapes and all features such as chimneys, parapet walls or dormer windows. Terrain is separated into land use categories. Trees locations (captured with correct height and canopy width) are also included.
Any model can be delivered as AutoCad solid .DWG, SketchUp .SKP or .FBX files.
Our High Detail 3D Model of London subscribers also receive Unreal Engine 4 app and all associated UE4 files.
Of course – feel free to Download AccuCities sample tile TQ3280SE. This large 500 x 500 meters sample can be used to evaluate our 3D models. The sample can be downloaded as AutoCad solid .DWG, SketchUp .SKP, FBX and .UE4 Project files as well as Interactive 3D Model. Different Levels of Detail 3D models are available in every format.
You don’t need to have an account with us to order 3D models.
We offer up to 80% discounts for students / non-profit projects. Send us your required area via our Quoting Tool and use “Student” instead of company name. Best of luck in your studies!
Level 3 models can be ordered from as little as 0.1 km2 (which is about 330 x 330 meters in real world).
Level 2 models can be ordered from as little as 0.25 km2 (which is about 500 x 500 meters in real world).
Custom 3D models can be ordered in any shape – simply draw a map mark-up , send it over to us and we will come back to you with a quote.
We prefer map mark-ups for quotes to be sent via our Quoting Tool. If you are having any difficulties or have a map in any other format, simply email it to info@accucities.com with your name, company, required Level of Detail and your contact details and we will come back to you.
Business customers will be invoiced with 14 days payment term in or shortly after 3D model delivery. Non-business customers might be asked to pay via Card, PayPal or UK money transfer before we accept an order.
We will usually come back to you within 2 hours with costs and delivery times for your project. Once these are confirmed by you we will order imagery, set-up a Photogrammetry project, manually capture your 3D model, post process the data and deliver the 3D model to you in required format via a download link.
