Abstract
Systems and methods presented herein can allow a user to efficiently generate a merged two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) view of an existing three-dimensional construction model. A processor can create new 2D views for each floor in the 3D model, and then merge those new 2D views with new 3D views of the model. The merged views can allow a construction worker to easily alternate between two-dimensional and three-dimensional views of a construction jobsite, for example, to track information particular to a floor without having to alter the 3D model.
