I’m very excited to unveil the 2013 Palm Beach International Boat Show Map. This is just the latest of my 3D rendered maps, but in many ways the most ambitious and the first I have made a time lapse video from. The map encompasses an area known as the Palm Beach Waterfront and City Commons as well as extending south along Flagler Drive. This map includes a lot of buildings compared to most of my boat show maps. Buildings include Meyer Amphitheater, the PNC Bank Building, Esplanade Grande, The Strand, McKeen Towers, Trump Plaza and more. These landmarks should be of great help to visitors to the show in orienting themselves within their surroundings. The original, vector based map was also revised and is used in the free boat show phone app.
The map will appear in the boat show program available for free at the show and on signage throughout the show. It will also appear in the Palm Beach Boat Show special section of The Palm Beach Post and Palm Beach Daily News’ annual broadsheet section about the show. If you didn’t see my previous post showing the map/model from different angles please have a look.
The 3D mapping technique has required me to learn several new software packages. The work itself comes first and this is the first time I felt absolutely positive that I was proficient enough with the new software that making a time lapse video couldn’t pose any undue distraction. The project was large and lengthy as you can see in the video, but I left out large chunks of time from the video because even at a vastly increased frame rate it becomes a little tedious. You may notice that the final map extends further south and the docks extend further out than in the video. That was the result of late stage revisions. I skipped recording the setup of the labeling, keying and page layout as well.
I hope you enjoy the video and the final map.

The Palm Beach International Boat Show of 2013 is still a little ways away on March 21st through the 24th, but I am already hard at work and quite a ways along on the map. Like the Saint Petersburg Power and Sailboat Show and The Yacht and Brokerage Show in Miami Beach I have made this map a virtual 3D model that can be lit and rendered from multiple angles. The map encompasses an area known as the Palm Beach Waterfront and City Commons as well as extending south along North Flagler Street. I have made a few renderings as I work that I wanted to share. I have also been working on a time lapse video of the creation of the map. I am waiting to get the map closer to final completion before I release the video, but you can expect to see it soon (now available here).

It’s time for the Palm Beach International Boat Show (March 22 – 25, 2012)
The map now extends further north and south along the West Palm Beach City Commons than it did last year. There are a lot of smaller or less obvious changes as well. I also created a couple of new detail maps that appear in the phone app, so look for those after you download the app. Working with Show Management was great as always. This is one of my largest scale maps to date and I really enjoy tinkering with it. I hope you enjoy the map and the show.
If you haven’t seen last year’s videos of the process of creation of the The Palm Beach International Boat Show map please have a look.
Additional information on the show is available from Show Management. The phone app is available for download here.
I also have made a Google Map marking the venue available and if you would like to use mass transit to get to the show this Trip Planner can be helpful. The address of the West Palm Beach City Commons is 101 South Flagler Drive, West Palm Beach, FL.
