Graphics Services
SWAPE scientists have developed a wide variety of computer-generated graphics, models, and presentations for mediation and trial purposes, public meetings, and other public presentations. We have prepared graphics as exhibits for numerous trials in state and federal courts, including major multi-district litigation cases. We also have experience in the preparation of various types of community mail pamphlets, health questionnaires, and other public outreach materials. In addition to graphics for use in various public forums, our work is featured in expert reports and other materials that are useful to clients at any stage of the process of their work.
SWAPE scientists use a variety of state-of-the-art computer drafting, mapping, and visualization tools to prepare graphical media displays for effectively communicating technical information to audiences with all levels of understanding and familiarity with the subject matter. We have experience guiding jurors, attorneys, city council members, community groups, and other participants through complex environmental phenomena, illustrating results of investigations, relationships, causation, and the important evidence in the case.
Our capabilities fall into the following general categories:
Mapping and Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
Air Dispersion Modeling and Other Modeling Simulations
Graphical Presentations of Data and Other Results of Technical Evaluations
Annotated Graphics and Displays using Photography and other Evidence
Graphics Overlays and Other Multi-Layer Presentations of Relating Evidence
3D Modeling and Animation Services for Historical Reconstruction/ Simulations
