Engineers & Surveyors

The approval process can be enhanced and accelerated with the use of Visualization - a detailed, virtual 3D simulation that integrates the physical environment, plans, and actual traffic operations to create one complete presentation package. It provides a dynamic and interactive virtual project to help people see and understand the project before it is built. Visualization can be extremely valuable in building credibility and gaining quick project approvals thereby saving valuable time and money.

Successful projects require two things - good technical design and clear communication of engineering concepts so consensus is achieved. Visualization allows an interactive experience where the stakeholders can be placed anywhere in the proposed project as a driver, pedestrian, or bicyclist. It allows people to actually participate in and see the end result in virtual 3D simulation, rather than traditional plans, sections, renderings, or detailed traffic analysis.

Benefits:

• Dynamic and interactive virtual 3D models.
• Show project benefits.
• Merge design plans and reports into one complete presentation package.
• Convincing presentations to improve public involvement & understanding.
• Educate and build credibility during public participation.
• Distribute to media & place on project website.
• Multi-modal traffic (vehicular, pedestrian and bicyclists) from any angle.
• Visually demonstrate the benefits and traffic issues of proposed alternatives.
• Reduce the number of meetings and keep the project on schedule.
• Identify problems during the design stage, reducing change orders.
