Here, we’ll use GIS data to produce simple site plans and urban diagrams. The takeaway is that there’s quite a lot you can do without ever touching more complex 3-D modeling software, and that simple vector graphics software is often the quickest way to iterate over site plans and produce illustrative (even evocative!) diagrams.
