The effort has been underway for about eight months, said Jacob Hall, a Wachovia vice president and head of the company’s platform design and data center, technology products group. To generate the 3-D models, the financial services company is using geospatial data and also partnering with a pair of vendors, Tideway Systems and Intepoint, as well as the University of North Carolina-Charlotte, which has a visualization center.
