Multi-purpose venues
Indoor and outdoor multi-purpose venues, including sports and entertainment stadiums, arenas and conference centers are benefitting from OnePlan’s unique, easy-to-use functionality. Our users upload 100 CAD and floor plan files per month on average, meaning they can easily plan on different floor levels in a building. And for major venues that want to visualise their venues and operational plans in a 3D digital twin, our VenueTwin view is just a click away.
• ExCeL London (UK): London’s leading event venue uses VenueTwin technology to create interactive 3D virtual walkthroughs, helping event organizers make better decisions about event locations and flow. This technology reduces the need for in-person site visits and allows organizers to share bespoke visuals with stakeholders, aiding in efficient and sustainable planning.
• Crypto.com Arena (Los Angeles, California): Home to the NBA’s Lakers and Clippers, NHL’s Kings, and WNBA’s Sparks, this iconic venue uses OnePlan’s GIS mapping and digital twin software to rapidly customize the venue for events, streamline collaborations, and enhance guest safety by accurately planning security resource placement.
