Frankfurt 3D: Time Travel Through the History of the Skyline

The skyline has become an internationally recognized eyecatcher of Frankfurt. New skyscrapers are built every year and you can hardly recognize where exactly high-rise buildings are being built and planned. Computer animations are made of new high-rise towers, but these only show the status for the respective individual project and usually leave out other projects. The City of Frankfurt also tests the compatibility of drafts in the city model, but these developments usually remain hidden from the public until the individual towers are completed.
That should change with the 3D high-rise map of Frankfurt: The SKYLINE ATLAS is currently having all high-rise towers developed in a 3D city model. This will then include all completed, under construction and planned high-rise buildings in the city center. The 3D map will be available via the browser in order to simulate the state of affairs at a certain point in time: what will Frankfurt look like in 2024, for example?
