How FAIA used situated testimony — live 3D witness annotation in a finished scene — in the Evros border investigation, and what the engine choice bought them.

Forensic Architecture's M4000 chemical bomb reconstruction from Al-Lataminah (Syria, 2017): blueprints, shrapnel geometry matching, projection texturing, and shape-key animation.

Forensic Architecture's Beirut port explosion reconstruction: city-scale model integration, custom warehouse modeling, point cloud registration, and temporally synchronized camera matching.

How Dutch police turned a 2009 rape victim's composite sketch and memory into a lifelike 3D suspect model for public identification: composite drawing, facial reconstruction, and iterative witness feedback.

A collection of real investigations showing what is possible by combining workflows, tools, and techniques. Each case links back to the techniques and tools that produce similar output.

How the Centre for Information Resilience (CIR) identified an RSF military camp in Libya by matching a vehicle (and its damage/textures) across footage and the fighting in Sudan.

How the GBU-39 (Small Diameter Bomb) interactive model was likely built: hard-surface modeling from references, texture projection, and web optimization for identification and education.
