The world stood still on April 15th, 2019, when a burning Notre-Dame de Paris filled our TV screens. It seemed as if centuries of history were about to be lost forever.
Luckily, firefighters were able to get the blaze under control and a long restoration process began. Autodesk leveraged scans created of Notre Dame via reality capture technology prior to the fire, enabling them to develop a stunning 3D BIM model of the Cathedral as it existed before the catastrophic event. This model became the lynchpin of the historically accurate rebuild.
To showcase Autodesk’s support in the restoration efforts and their ability to make anything, we created this moving spot from the perspective of the Lady of Paris herself. Built in 1163, she marvels at the ability of modern technologies to restore her rich past.
