 For example, you can take GI data from 100 AGS files and combine them into a single a [GeoPackage](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoPackage) ([like a Shapefile, but then waaay better](http://switchfromshapefile.org/)). Such a GeoPackage can then be loaded into ArcGIS, where you can visualize your GI data in 3D:

 > During my time at Arup I worked a lot on bringing computational design into the world of geotechnical engineering, and on [bridging the gaps between geotechnical engineering and structural engineering](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/joost-gevaert_lightbim-lightbim-lightbim-activity-7234726439835549697-3xdO).
