Developed an Interactive application for an installation at Queens Museum that allows visitors to learn about and explore a 3D digital twin of the Panorama, a scale model of New York City built for the 1964 World's Fair.
Functionality:
A curated 3D tour of New York City landmarks on the digital twin was built using the CesiumJS viewer; a tour of Flushing Meadows Corona Park (the site of the Queens Museum) was created using Sketchfab Viewer; and visitors can leave messages about their own stories of New York City using a web form with an approval process, or read others' on a MapBox tiled 2D version.
