System

Technically sound user controls with popup menus, dialogues, context-related entry fields and symbol bars, e.g. for alignment selection, chainage selection, coordinate definition
MDI technology: Better overview by presenting the project data in multiple graphics windows and different views: base map, profile, cross-section, string views, User-definable Profile view, 3D view and drawing view
Cross-window editing: Simultaneous construction in multiple windows, progress can be viewed in all windows
Evaluation functions: All evaluation functions are at hand by activating a view, the current construction task is not interrupted
Overview window displaying the entire project and any section defined
User-defined sections, comfortable zoom and section scroll using the mouse wheel
Grouped and auto-updated string windows in the profile, e.g. curvature string, cross-fall string, width string, speed string
User-definable display conventions: technically sound data display as an alternative to a working view
Map sheet-free project work - objects need to be edited once only. Drawings are updated as simple as a mouse click.
Freely positionable report window which logs all editing steps. Links in the report guide to further details. more »

Centralized database-driven management of all projects in either a network or locally
Top security for project data due to database protection and security features

High level of efficiency by creating various project types e.g. templates for often-repeated tasks or frequent clients
Special requirements are taken into account, e.g. the needs of a particular client, by defining and re-using central projects with task-specific, central definitions and settings
Working effectively using blanket settings for the project, such as code and display tables and drawing specifications
Workflow optimization by evaluating project topics: access to appropriate design parameters and reference data in selection tables and pre-settings by assigning a project to a topic, e.g. sewer design
Excellent project overview by using project categories to filter the projects, e.g. according to client or department
Plug & Play: blanket definitions and settings for the projects are part of the package, e.g. symbol library, pen table, fonts, line types and templates

Column width and order may be set individually
Sorting criteria for list displays
Quick data search

Output of calculation reports using ready-made, exchangeable format templates which can be adjusted to suit individual needs
Preparing drawings with blanket drawing rules applicable in all cases, e.g. suitable to the guidelines (RAS-VERM). Define your own rules and extend existing rules
User-related format settings for dialogue entries, value displays and other displays (decimal point)
