About the Project

Sunovatech was commissioned to create a comprehensive 3D visualization for The Durban Aerotropolis masterplan, designed to showcase the impact and operation of the fully developed city by 2040. This visualization played a crucial role in bringing the ambitious project to life, illustrating how the Dube TradePort Special Economic Zone would evolve into a world-class commercial and light industrial precinct. The detailed 3D models highlighted the integration of globally advanced logistics and manufacturing infrastructure, encompassing airport-related activities such as cargo operations, warehousing, agricultural processing, and cold storage, as well as commercial real estate for office, retail, and hospitality sectors.

The impact of Sunovatech's 3D visualization services on stakeholders was profound. It provided a clear and tangible representation of future development, enabling stakeholders to better understand the scale, design, and functionality of the Aerotropolis. This immersive visualization facilitated more informed decision-making, enhanced stakeholder engagement, and garnered greater support and investment for the project. Sunovatech helped align the vision of planners, investors, and the community by offering a realistic preview of the future city, ensuring a cohesive approach towards realizing the Aerotropolis master plan.
