Trimble has launched version 7.3 of the Trimble Quantm system for road and rail alignment planning.

Version 7.3 introduces Trimble Quantm Enterprise, a locally hosted version of what the US firm says is the proven Quantm system for alignment planning. Said to be designed for government planning agencies and large, multi-disciplinary consultants who perform transportation planning in-house, Trimble Quantm Enterprise is described as offering all the functionality of the Quantm system, operating on the users’ Intranet and server. With Quantm Enterprise, organisations are said to have the flexibility to apply the Quantm system on multiple road or rail projects within their organisation, ranging from short bypasses or spur lines to national transport plans.

Version 7.3 of the Quantm system also includes an integrated visualisation engine for design reviews and consultation, and an automated property analysis identifying all affected land parcels and property owners for each alignment alternative. In addition, free Quantm viewer software is now available so users can easily share proposed alignments with project stakeholders.
