Abstract: A method of and a system for propagating a configuration setting of a 3D model to other 3D models, the 3D model and the other 3Ds being part of a same 3D model category. The 5 method comprises dividing the 3D model into a first plurality of surfaces; associating to each one of the first plurality of surfaces, a unique surface identifier. For each one of the other 3D models, the method comprises dividing the one of the other 3D models into a second plurality of surfaces; establishing a correspondence; associating, for each one of the second plurality of surfaces corresponding to one of the first plurality of surfaces. The method also comprises 0 selecting the configuration setting of the 3D model; determining the unique identifier of the 3D model to which the configuration setting is to be applied; and propagating, the configuration setting to the other 3D models.

Abstract: A system for operating a configuration platform. The system comprising a conversion pipeline, the conversion pipeline allowing converting a first set of data associated with a computer-aided design (CAD) system into polygon meshes suitable for rendering of the portion of a monument and configuration data. The system also comprising a content management system, the content management system storing the polygon meshes and the configuration data; and a 3D real-time engine, the 3D real-time engine allowing to determine, based on the configuration data, at least one of the positioning of the monument, the material surface associated with the monument, the material grain direction associated with the monument, the lighting associated with the monument, the annotations associated with the monument, the alternate states associated with the monument and the kinematic sequence associated with the monument; and to render the portion of the monument by the 3D real-time engine.
