The study enabled Boffa Miskell Landscape Architects and GIS Specialists to create a customised 3D platform for data collection, interaction, and communication. This tool enabled the visualisation and annotation of complex site data, including slope analysis, land cover, and trail networks, in a dynamic 3D environment, thereby overcoming the limitations of 2D mapping. The tools and strategies developed offer a scalable model for future planning across similar forested environments.

The team developed a planting strategy focused on revegetation that promotes balancing ecological goals with recreational needs. The strategy was then visualised in Twinmotion, producing a 3D scene and renders that effectively communicate the planting approach.

The planting plan aims to increase biodiversity by forming ecological corridors and extending gully planting from Orphanage and Poormans Valley Streams. Native planting zones were established around the site’s perimeter, and planting zones were then developed into the 3D environment, guided by slope, aspect, and proximity to existing trails.
