3D render of a corrugated culvert discharging beneath a rock embankment on open tundra, with a caribou in the distance

Permitting & regulatory review

Culverts & waterways.

Watercourse crossings, shown in cross-section and in flow. Water is modelled moving through the crossing, so erosion, water levels and the life in the stream can be discussed from one picture.

Deliverables: 3D visualizationUsed in: Community communication

Challenge

Watercourse crossings are approved or contested on details that are invisible from the surface.

Solution

Cross-section visualization of culverts and waterways showing structure and water flow together.

Impact

Makes the below-ground story legible to reviewers.
