Introduction
Universitas Darussalam Gontor (UNIDA Gontor) requires adaptive technology solutions to address weaknesses in its campus physical development master plan, such as vulnerability to damage and difficulty in updating prototypes. This study aims to design a 3D model of buildings in the UNIDA Gontor area that is easily accessible and dynamic, using a waterfall model with the following stages: (1) Needs, (2) Design, (3) Implementation, (4) Verification, and (5) Maintenance.
Summary
The 3D visualization product of the Master Plan of the University of Darussalam Gontor Building has met user needs, with an average score of 88.12% from the facility and infrastructure staff questionnaire. This 3D model is in accordance with the original building model and functions well through black box testing. It is expected that this model can help development and infrastructure planning at UNIDA Gontor more adaptively and dynamically and is easy to use anywhere.
Analysis
This paper discusses the use of 3D models for infrastructure design at Universitas Darussalam Gontor, replacing physical blueprints with more adaptive digital solutions. Using the waterfall model and Blender software, testing showed high success and user satisfaction. Two maintenance sessions corrected errors and added details, emphasizing the importance of continuous maintenance. The 3D model supports more dynamic infrastructure planning.
Personal Opinion
This journal presents a well-executed study with practical implications for university infrastructure planning. Its innovative approach, combined with a strong focus on user needs and comprehensive testing, makes it a valuable contribution to the field. Future research can build on this foundation by incorporating more flexible methodologies and exploring advanced features to enhance the utility and scalability of 3D modeling in infrastructure planning.
Recommendation
This journal is recommended for staff of facilities and infrastructure of Darussalam Gontor University, especially those involved in campus infrastructure planning and development. The resulting 3D model is expected to help more adaptive and dynamic planning and facilitate access to infrastructure models.
Critical Analyst
The waterfall model used is clear but lacks flexibility; an iterative model might be more adaptive. Validation is positive, but small user sample limits generalizability. Blender is a good choice, but technical challenges need to be addressed. Ongoing maintenance is important, and long-term planning and potential issues need more attention. Further research with a broader user base is needed.
Conclusion
This paper shows the importance of 3D technology in university infrastructure planning. The 3D model helps Universitas Darussalam Gontor overcome dynamic design challenges, improve planning efficiency, and reduce the risk of damage to the physical model. This model is expected to continue to grow and support future development projects, in line with the university's modern infrastructure vision.
