Lab 9 - Google Sketchup
http://mason.gmu.edu/~adement/Northern_Arizona_University.kmz
This isn't fancy but I had some interesting shapes that made things kind of tough. In particular, the circular building is actually a dome but I could not figure out how to do that despite checking out lots of stuff in "Help". I think it might be part of the advanced version you have to pay for. I think this has lots of potential...it was just frustrating because I had to experiment a great deal to get it to do things beyond what was in the tutorials.
Also, whenever I bring the file back up in Google, it zooms in too far and whips past the model. I couldn't figure out how to get it to stop doing that.
