Landscape designing CAD software are now mostly in two-dimensional draft stage in domestic, and three-dimensional visualization of designed landscape models and applications are still in the initial stage. The essay based on precise three dimensional solid modelling SketchUp software, introduces SketchUp software functions and features, and focuses on three aspects of garden design, hand-painted TIN terrain design, planting design and planning and design of garden objects. Through engineering examples to import the landscape of two-dimension vector data into SketchUp software, use SketchUp techniques flexibly to solve different details and avoid redundant and diverse work. After rendering and post processing, establishing a realistic visualization of three-dimensional entity model.
