Advanced Features in RoadEng: Part 2

This webinar is going to cover the second part of the advanced features of RoadEng, including:

• Working with Multiple Horizontal Alignments in the new project explorer panel
• How to Create Template Link Components
• What the Opti-Haul graphic is and how to use it
• Using Smart Pits to better determine pit locations 

Using LiDAR & Earthwork Optimization Software to Better Locate Roads

Earthwork optimization technology generates the lowest cost road location (both horizontally and vertically) based on earthwork volume and movement costs, as well as constraints such as minimum grades. Road optimization offers new opportunities to take advantage of more robust survey data, like UAV and LiDAR data, and improve engineering workflows, all before setting out in the field.

In this webinar:

• We will work with a LiDAR-based digital terrain model
• Horizontally optimize a proposed road alignment (includes vertical alignment optimization)
• Review costs and explore the impact of design changes

In Spanish - La utilización de LiDAR y del software de optimización de movimiento de tierras para ubicar mejor las vías

La tecnología de optimización del movimiento de tierras genera la ubicación de la vía de menor costo (tanto horizontal como verticalmente) en función del volumen de movimiento de tierras y los costos de movimiento, así como restricciones tales como pendientes mínimas. La optimización de carreteras ofrece nuevas oportunidades para aprovechar datos topográficos más sólidos, como los datos UAV y LiDAR, y mejorar los flujos de trabajo de ingeniería, todo antes de comenzar a trabajar en el campo.
