DESCRIPTION:There has been a lot of progress in the capabilities of the 3D 
 map visualization within QGIS. With support for various 3D data formats\, 
 QGIS 3D is moving far beyond the simple viewer when it was first released 
 in QGIS 3.0 in 2018.\n\nThis talk summarizes the work that has been done i
 n 2025 and 2026 to make QGIS 3D faster\, more powerful and easier to use. 
 We will discuss support for ESRI’s scene layers (I3S / SLPK)\, improveme
 nts to 3D Tiles support\, significant performance improvements for handlin
 g of vector layers and much more!\n\nIn 2025\, Lutra Consulting and North 
 Road ran a successful crowdfunding campaign to push QGIS into the world of
  geospatial digital twins. The goal was to transform QGIS 3D from a capabl
 e but limited viewer into a credible open-source platform for urban planni
 ng\, infrastructure management and environmental simulation. With the fund
 ed work now delivered across QGIS 4.0 and 4.2\, this session reports back 
 on what was built\, what it looks like in practice\, and what it means for
  anyone working with 3D geospatial data.
