Handling Big Data in RoadEng

As datasets continue to grow, managing large amounts of data efficiently is crucial. This webinar will explore tools and techniques to optimize workflows when working with larger datasets. 

It will include:

  • Working with large LiDAR datasets while preserving accuracy.
  • Starting with a low-resolution area, defining an Area of Interest (AOI), and importing higher-resolution data.
  • Selective thinning at the time of import to reduce unnecessary data points.
  • Efficient terrain model management to maintain performance.
  • Exporting and sharing large datasets effectively.

These strategies will help improve efficiency and performance when handling big data in RoadEng.

¡En español! - Diseño Eficiente de Vías de Acceso y Transporte: ¡Optimización Simplificada!

En este seminario web introductorio demostraremos cómo utilizar RoadEng con Softree Optimal para proyectos de caminos de acceso y acarreo en minería, forestal, y otras industrias de recursos. 

Veremos cómo:

  • Crear un modelo digital de terreno (MDT) en 3D
  • Identificar ubicaciones preliminares para los caminos
  • Desarrollar diseños geométricos detallados de caminos
  • Optimizar alineamientos para minimizar los trabajos de excavación, reduciendo los costos de subbase entre un 10 y un 25%.

En esta sesión también destacaremos cómo estas herramientas pueden ayudar a equilibrar la eficiencia en costos mientras se minimiza el impacto ambiental.

Terrain Tools for Site Design

This webinar will cover many of the feature tools and functions in Terrain Tools 3D that allow you to create and modify surfaces. These tools form the building blocks of most site design projects (graded pads, ponds, bridge sites, culverts, channels, etc.).

These tools and functions include:

  • importing data 
  • building DTM
  • creating new features
  • buffering, 
  • grading,
  • merging terrains 
  • adding reference background terrains 
  • and more.

Designing Culverts & Fish Passage with RoadEng

This seminar will demonstrate two methods for the design of culverts:

  • Major culverts.  We will demonstrate a workflow using both Location and Terrain Modules in RoadEng to create major culvert and fish passage sites. We will also calculate earthwork quantities and create construction documentation.
     
  • Minor culverts. We will demonstrate how to add simple culverts using the culvert editor panel in RoadEng's Location Module.
