Kern BlueprintVisualizations
Toolkit Examples
Blueprint Principles Conserve energy and natural resources, and develop
alternatives Provide adequate and equitable services Enhance economic vitality Provide a variety of housing choices Use and improve existing community assets and
infrastructure Use compact, efficient development and/or mixed land
uses where appropriate Provide a variety of transportation choices Conserve undeveloped land and spaces Increase civic and public engagement
2D Visualizations Kern COG is developing a Toolkit to help illustrate
Blueprint Principles, and provide design examples. There are two types of 2D Visualizations
Static Current vs Conceptual views Transition from Current to Conceptual view
You can use existing sample views like those on the following slides, or design custom views.
Kern COG plans to assist the development of visualizations for the different types of communities within the county.
The following slides are examples of the visualizations used by SANDAG for their Toolkit.

3D Visualizations 3D visualizations illustrating Blueprint Principles (Smart Growth) and
Transit connections Design could be same as used in a 2D, an existing design, or custom
design. Sample 3D Kern COG expects to work closely with local officials, planners, and
others to develop reasonable conceptual views of future communities Kern COG plans to combine local visualizations to illustrate regional
transit concepts. For example we could use a 3D visualization of Ridgecrest and add an
animated person boarding a Kern Regional Bus. Then jump to view of the same animated person getting of the same bus at the High Speed Rail Station in Palmdale, or Bakersfield.
These local visualizations could be added to the existing HSR visualizations.
