All Hail the Mighty Google
If you haven't tried, or heard of SketchUp right now, well, you're not the only one.
One of our wise Google Overlords purchases is a 3D scale rendering program that squarely kicks everything programs behind I've ever used that was even close to free.
We've been going crazy designing the details of our facilities with it, down the the last private locker and cellar - all exactly to scale, so we know exactly what kind of density and racking we need to make the numbers work. It's awesome!
On top of that, you can even import topography from Google Earth to Sketchup, and we can immediately see if a site is going to work with a particular cave layout (length of entryways to storage, etc), and make sure it maintains fire code compliance, etc.
Really, really amazing, so THANK YOU oh kind, benevolent GoogleLords, this helps us get a level of detail that tells us 1) if it will work, and 2) how it can best work... and it doesn't hurt that we can SEE what it looks like.
