Introduction
The Industrial Area HDRI-brand is a collection of high-dynamic range images, which display industrialized and rugged environments. Usually the qualities selected under the brand is industrial, urban decay, degeneration and abandonment. The lighting-conditions of these varies from natural exterior lighting to artificial indoor lighting.
Description
A first on in the set of industrial themed HDRI-images.
A 360/180-degrees HDRI, shot at the industrial area of my hometown at dusk, at spring. Great for producing physically-accurate lightning for your CG-work, or panoramic purposes, backplates, 360-degree backplate for your compositions (for example with Red Giant Horizon), you name it!
As for personal usage, I use the HDRI’s I shoot for CG-work mostly, and lightning them. If it’s a job where I need to plant CG-object in a real world environment, then I use the HDRI for producing accurate lightning and reflections. But these are not the only things you can use the HDRI’s for, and I encourage you to find new and interesting ways to make use of them.
Tip: In 3DS Max, if you use VRay, you can use only the sky portion of the images if wished so, by unchecking the “Full-dome” option in VrayLight Dome-settings.
Provided with high quality tone-mapped 8-bit 18 megapixel JPEG backplates from several angles to use for compositing.

This is an preview image of a big update coming to this product: the update will include this work-in-progress decayed warehouse model textured (replica of the one in scene) with textures from my library and set-up HDR-rig with this HDRI providing lighting.
