Voxel Farm in SketchUp?
-
Voxel Farm - 3D engine based on voxels, but converting them to meshes for display, has made a new advancement that allows it to display vast, "unlimited" areas with a sub-millimetre precision.
Trimble is one of companies having a license of full Voxel Farm engine.
I think it is a just a matter of time, when we see this integrated in SketchUp. There is also a chance we could see a new product based on this engine... but it is less probable.

How do you imagine this integrated in Sketchup?
-
I see it as an extension to GeoLocation, where you could specify a service providing 3D data or your own point-cloud/voxel data gathered from a drone or a laser scanner.
The engine itself is also nice. I would love to see it being used inside SketchUp, including parametric/procedural materials and things similar to our dynamic components (L-system).

This looks interesting!
