CityEngine was originally designed and developed by Pascal Mueller from Switzerland. He invented a breakthrough programmatic modeling technology during his doctoral study in the computer vision laboratory at ETH Zurich. This technology was mainly used for three-dimensional architectural design, which also laid a solid foundation for CityEngine. In 2001, he published a research article "Procedural Modeling of Cities" in SIGGRAPH. This also meant CityEngine had been officially out of the lab.

Agisoft PhotoScan (now called Agisoft Metashape) is a three-dimensional model refactoring tool based on digital image & video, developed by Agisoft from Russia, and widely used by archaeologists and UAV companies. It can use the plane images to automatically generate high-quality 3D model, which can be understood as a process of converting a series of 2D images to a 3D model. Therefore, this is a well-deserved edge tool for users with many 3D modeling needs.
