Abstract

Urban modeling is a way to visualize and simulate urban areas to make it easier to analyze complex urban systems. Games Cities: Skyline as a CBG (City Building Game), can be used for the non-game purpose to simulates urban-related processes in a visually appealing 3D city environment in the field of urban planning and design. CBG offers an interactive way to visualize and simulate the city in playable ways. Using Denpasar City as a field study, the process of making the real 3D city model accurately into playable simulation requires geodata information. By using automatic geodata processing methods, the model is created by translates geographic information of city elements such as DEM (Data Elevation Model), road networks, vegetation, water sources, land use, etc are forming into Geographic Information System (GIS) data format. By using a game modification system (commonly called mod), the city geodata information is imported into the Cities: Skyline. There are two steps to create a playable city model that can be running in the game: firstly, importing the entire Denpasar City Geodata which will be generated automatically into the game, and the second is the post-production by manually modifying the model to make city model can be running in the game properly. The result is the Denpasar City model is accurately created based on geographic data and offer valuable simulation such as traffic simulation, population density, pollution, etc. And also, through the playable simulation, we could interactively design the ideal city based on real city simulation.
