# Adding miscellaneous 3D models

It’s possible to individually insert custom 3D models into a scene. This is a technique that can potentially combine well with integrated mesh content. One example of this could show a visualisation of a planned building or structure at its intended location.\
\
A new ‘3D object’ feature class has been introduced to support this flowline (see ['Introduction to the 3D object feature class' in the ArcGIS Pro documentation](https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/help/data/3d-objects/what-is-a-3d-object-feature-class-.htm)), although the long-established ‘multipatch’ format also works. Various standard 3D file formats are supported (.dae, .fbx, .glb, .obj, etc) – any of these can be exported from Blender or other similar modelling tools.

It’s outside the scope of this document to go into detail about this process. However, if you want to explore this further, we recommend this ESRI tutorial on how to [import and incorporate 3D models in a scene](https://learn.arcgis.com/en/projects/import-and-incorporate-3d-models-in-a-scene/).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.os.uk/os-downloads/upcoming-products/beta-products-information/os-3d-mesh-beta-product/getting-started-guide/importing-an-os-integrated-mesh-model-into-arcgis-pro/adding-miscellaneous-3d-models.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
