City Building With OSM Data in Houdini

Learn how to create a city block using data acquired from Open Street Map [OSM]. This information will be processed using three tools from SideFX Labs combined into a Houdini Digital Asset that can be loaded into UE4 using the Houdini Engine plug-in. The asset will procedurally generate points that can be used to instance geometry that is part of your UE4 project. These point use attributes to add variation to the look of the buildings based on information from the OSM data.
