Description

In contrast to other CAD and GIS applications, this software was specifically designed with urban planners in mind from its inception, facilitating the creation of 3D models that utilize established building styles and urban forms. CityCAD provides a streamlined and efficient method for drafting urban masterplans in three dimensions. When routes intersect, junctions are formed with straightforward kerb radii automatically. Moreover, if you adjust the positioning of roads, the surrounding urban blocks are resized automatically. This software also includes an array of advanced analytical tools, offering valuable quantitative insights into your masterplan during the initial conceptual design phases. Users can build a personalized library of land use categories and assign these to different building floors. Additionally, you can input estimates for energy consumption, water usage, and waste generation rates (calculated per person, dwelling unit, or area unit), with total figures being computed in real-time as you develop and refine your design. This capability allows for a more responsive and informed planning process, enabling users to make adjustments based on immediate feedback.

Description

Simplex 3D is an advanced 3D reality-planning platform that enables professionals to visualize, strategize, and construct within precise urban and infrastructural frameworks. It features smooth 360° navigation across city landscapes with a remarkable resolution of up to 3 cm-per-pixel, integrating various data types such as zoning, transportation, financial, and infrastructure information for a thorough understanding of the situation. Users have the capability to import intricate architectural CAD or BIM models from software like Revit or SketchUp, create new designs, simulate different scenarios regarding height, shadows, and visibility, and assess their plans in realistic settings. The platform includes a comprehensive collaboration workspace, allowing project participants to exchange views, bookmarks, comments, and presentations all in one cohesive environment, which enhances the efficiency of approval processes and minimizes discrepancies. Furthermore, Simplex 3D is equipped with engineering-grade measurement tools, split-screen comparisons of past and future projections, and real-time data overlays, thereby removing ambiguity and facilitating informed decision-making. This innovative approach not only optimizes project planning but also encourages teamwork and enhances communication among stakeholders.
