Autodesk Announces New Products
Autodesk (CA, USA) has released two products to help improve network design and management for the utilities industry: Autodesk Utility Design (AUD) 2009 software and Autodesk Topobase 2009 software. These products will help utilities design their networks more efficiently and integrate precision as-built information into their processes.
Autodesk Utility Design 2009 software streamlines the design process with true rules-based automation-integrating the creation of construction drawings, performing engineering calculations to size facilities, and linking to materials management systems to create the correct materials orders for new facilities. The new version is built on AutoCAD Map 3D 2009 software and includes enhanced engineering calculations.
Autodesk Topobase software, built on AutoCAD Map 3D and Autodesk MapGuide Enterprise software, integrates infrastructure design and management. It provides easy access to accurate design, spatial and asset information to engineering, GIS and field operations teams. New features include wastewater inspection workflows that integrate network management and video, network schematic generation and the ability to visualise the inside of network structures such as transformer stations. It also works with more versions of Oracle databases, and includes vertical modules for managing water, wastewater, gas and electric assets in the base product.
