The Ecopark de Wierde near Heerenveen is being expanded, and we have been commissioned by Omrin to visualize this. The park serves as a showcase of the circular economy and offers a range of facilities and activities focused on minimizing waste, maximizing recycling, and promoting environmental awareness.
The Ecopark de Wierde near Heerenveen is being expanded, and we have been asked by Renate van Opzeeland from Omrin to visualize this. The park serves as a showcase of the circular economy and offers a range of facilities and activities focused on minimizing waste, maximizing recycling, and promoting environmental awareness. With innovative facilities, educational programs, and a strong emphasis on sustainable development, it is an inspiring place that invites visitors to explore a sustainable future.
For two information sessions in December 2023, we set up the Area Participation Platform to provide clear insights into the changes at ground level. We also created an animation that illustrates the phasing in six steps. Both presentations use the same map layer and 3D information, including buildings and vegetation.
These sessions were organized for local residents and interested parties to inform them about the plans as outlined by the landscape architect. Attendees could also explore the area in Virtual Reality to gain an even better understanding of the future Ecopark.

If I may give the Area Participation Platform a rating, it would be a 9.
Additionally, the visualizations helped us a great deal in presenting the project.
