We've all heard gloomy statistics about the challenge of finding skilled talent in today's market—and civil design and construction are no exception. Couple this with the trending demand for 3–7D model deliverables and ISO compliance that more clients are requiring, and it's no surprise that many firms are asking, "Can we do more with less, sustainably?" To that end, most know of Dynamo and its incredible potential to automate repetitive tasks, saving valuable time and money. And some have at least heard of the relative newcomer, the Standardized Data Tool for Civil 3D software, and its ability to aggregate, manipulate, and analyze project data from multiple drawings through a single spreadsheet. Now it's time to combine these powerful tools in the context of design workflows. In this session, we'll demonstrate three examples of how well these tools complement each other, highlighting the latest Dynamo nodes along the way. By the end, you'll be inspired to start thinking of how you can use both tools at your firm.

In this session, we'll showcase how to use drawing standardization, Autodesk proprietary formats, and publicly available information to quickly create dynamic near-real-time models of our sites in InfraWorks software.

Learn how to set up an effective link between a 2D plan and the consolidated intelligent model in accordance with the information embedded in the vector objects. We’ll also cover the creation of parametric barriers in Inventor software for InfraWorks, and how to apply parametric barriers for component roads in InfraWorks. See a demonstration of the Dynamo script that places barriers on the appropriate position in the consolidated model in accordance with the attributes of the barrier’s points from the 2D plan.

Ever wish you could visualize real-world data without leaving the comfort of your own office? Sound too wonderful to be true? Well, it isn't. Sending crews into the field to measure and collect information about assets is time consuming and costly. But when you have street-level spherical imagery and colorized LIDAR (light detection and ranging) data at hand, you have the freedom to quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively create photorealistic 3D models for planning, design, emergency and disaster management, regulatory compliance, and asset management. We'll explore the collection process and business implications for street-level reality capture and examine 2 alternatives, such as Google Street View and CycloMedia. We'll also discuss practical workflows for municipal governments using this data, including design and visualization, with a focus on water asset management and pavement surface markings. Finally, we'll describe how to effectively integrate these data sources with AutoCAD Civil 3D software and InfraWorks software.

Many building site projects live in 2 worlds: everything inside the building, and everything outside the building. The 2 worlds only come together after an excessive amount of swearing and hours of unnecessary time spent. But does it have to be that way? Absolutely not. Coordinating Revit software and AutoCAD Civil 3D software doesn't have to require a degree in nuclear physics, and this session will show you how. Co-presented by a Revit and an AutoCAD Civil 3D specialist, you will gain an understanding of the expectations for each platform, and learn how to configure them. With coordinated model locations in place, we'll define effective practices for exchanging data between Revit software and AutoCAD Civil 3D software. Using the full potential of each coordinated design model, you will learn how to assemble your project in the context of its surroundings using InfraWorks software, and you'll learn how to generate a virtual reality scene.
