Method and system for displaying and navigating an optimal multi-dimensional building model

Visualizing three dimensional content is complicated by display platforms capable of more degrees of freedom to display the content than interface tools have to navigate that content. Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying select portions of the content and generating virtual camera positions with associated look angles for the select portions, such as planar geometries of a three dimensional building, thereby constraining the degrees of freedom for improved navigation through views of the content. Look angles can be associated with axes of the content and fields of view.
