About Geopogo

Building the Digital World

Geopogo is a San Francisco–based geospatial technology startup transforming real-world data into immersive 3D environments for architecture, planning, simulation, digital twins, and game development.

The company was founded by San Francisco architect and project manager Dave Alpert, whose career has spanned projects ranging from homes and schools to hospitals and high-rise developments. Throughout decades in the architecture and construction industry, Dave witnessed a common challenge: people often struggled to fully understand a project before it was built. Drawings, renderings, and physical models could only communicate so much, leading to misunderstandings, delays, and costly changes.

He believed there had to be a better way.

That belief became the foundation of Geopogo.

Geopogo was created to help architects, developers, planners, engineers, and creators visualize and experience projects in the context of the real world. What began as a vision for immersive design review has evolved into a platform for generating and exploring digital representations of cities, buildings, and places around the globe.

Today, Geopogo transforms geospatial, BIM, mapping, and city data into interactive 3D environments that can be explored across the web, mobile devices, augmented reality, and real-time 3D engines such as Unreal Engine.

Our technology is used to:

  • Generate real-world 3D cities
  • Create digital twins and simulation environments
  • Visualize architecture and urban planning projects
  • Import city data into game engines
  • Explore designs in augmented reality
  • Support collaboration and decision-making across teams

From architectural visualization and urban development to training simulations and open-world games, Geopogo helps organizations create immersive digital environments in minutes instead of months.

We believe the future of design, planning, and storytelling begins with understanding the world in three dimensions. By making geographic information more accessible, interactive, and intelligent, Geopogo is helping build a future where anyone can explore, understand, and create within a digital version of the real world.

See the World. Build the Future.

The Roadmap

From Raw OSM Data to a Living City

Each step brings real-world geospatial data closer to a fully immersive, photorealistic urban environment.

1

Available now

OSM Data Export

Raw OpenStreetMap building footprints and road networks exported as clean 3D geometry — the foundation of every city.

2

Available now

OSM Data with Textures

PBR materials applied across buildings and terrain — glass, brick, concrete, and road markings that respond to light.

3

In progress

Procedural Buildings & Roads

Algorithmically generated facades, varied roof profiles, and detailed road meshes layered over real-world footprints.

4

Coming soon

Full City — The Vision

Complete streetscapes with buildings, roads, trees, pedestrians, vehicles, and ground-level detail. Every city. Any scale.
