Visualisation of complicated agent based simulation - such as traffic or pedestrian modelling often takes second place to the actual simulation process. Yet, if modellers are to communicate to a wider field, the obvious link is to import simulations into 3D modelling software, such as 3D Max. Newlands & Company have refined a series of Max Scripts to allow them to view their simulation data in a 3D environment and the results are impressive:
