Novapoint offers new road design program

Norway's Novapoint has released the server-side version of its new object-based road design software, QuadriDCM, which it says will effectively integrate BIM-based interdisciplinary working methods over the internet. The software works in conjunction with the Novapoint 19 DCM road design suite and allows cloud-based design work by multiple users. Engineers check out a portion of a 3D model directly and work on it so that, "…the intelligent model becomes the central information carrier of all infrastructure

RSSNorway's 357 Novapoint has released the server-side version of its new object-based road design software, QuadriDCM, which it says will effectively integrate BIM-based interdisciplinary working methods over the internet. The software works in conjunction with the Novapoint 19 DCM road design suite and allows cloud-based design work by multiple users. Engineers check out a portion of a 3D model directly and work on it so that, "…the intelligent model becomes the central information carrier of all infrastructure data throughout its whole lifetime," said the company which sees its system as one of the first true BIM systems in the road and rail sector.

    A new package from 3D Repo offers effective real-time BIM change detection. This cloud-based change detection software can be used for 3D construction models to avert BIM issues from unregistered changes. This solution is said to provide a fast and reliable way to detect changes in underlying 3D models, using an encrypted web browser. The patent pending innovation operates on any 3D models, regardless of their file type, software used to produce them or file size. Called 3D Diff, the 3D Repo solution also a
