Abstract: A method of team viewing of an architecture design model includes executing team viewing computer-readable instructions to initiate team viewing; attempting to enter a virtual room to allow for more than one user to view the three-dimensional (3D) architectural design model; joining the virtual room as a guest; and receiving identification data or parameters regarding the 3D architectural design model. If a user computing device and memory device already has an electronic copy of the 3D architectural design model, the 3D architectural design model is constructed and displayed in the virtual room. If a user computing device and memory device does not have the electronic copy of the 3D architectural design model, the 3D architectural design model is downloaded to the user computing device and displayed on a surface and synchronized with a room creator of the virtual room.

Abstract: The method includes displaying an augmented reality design file including receiving, at a mobile communication device, the augmented reality design file, the augmented reality design file including a geolocation parameter; activating a geolocation mode of an architecture software application; reading the geolocation parameter of the received augmented reality design file; calculating a distance value and a directional parameter of the mobile computing device with respect to a location of a structure corresponding to the augmented reality design file; displaying the distance value and the directional parameter on a display of the mobile communication device; and continuing to update the distance value and the directional parameter as the mobile computing device moves toward the structure location.
