CommunityViz Installer Files

____________________________

Tutorial Dataset Installer File

Scenario 360 Analysis Viewers

The free CommunityViz Analysis Viewer lets you view and interact with CommunityViz files published in a special *.psc format by someone using the CommunityViz Analysis Publisher.

To use the Analysis Viewer, you will also need Esri’s free ArcReader. Once you have installed ArcReader, download and install our free Analysis Viewer below. The Analysis Viewer works on most modern Windows computers.

To use the Analysis Viewer, launch it from its desktop icon, which is a red circle labeled “360” with a magnifying glass on top, or from Start > All Programs > CommunityViz > CommunityViz Analysis Viewer. After it starts, click the blue question mark button for complete documentation and help.

For more information on using the Scenario 360 Viewer, please see the Scenario 360 Help.

Scenario 3D Viewer {.MSI, 28.5MB}

The free Scenario 3D Viewer is an application that lets you explore scenes created in Scenario 3D. The 3D Viewer reads *.scene files created with the Scenario 3D Exporter. It works on most modern Windows computers and does not require ArcMap or the Scenario 3D Exporter.

To get started, download and run one of the installers above.

For more information on using the Scenario 3D Viewer, please see the Scenario 3D Help.
