We have some exciting developments underway with Keynetix www.keynetix.com that will help automate the process of importing borehole field data into a project model.

I am here at the #geotechnicaME conference in Doha this week geotechnica ME banner

where I will be demonstrating with Keynetix a technology, which we have licensed, for AutoCAD Civil 3D and to use the data throughout the Autodesk Infrastructure Design Suite and for use with model devices.

We hope to deliver this technology sometime next year.

Also there will be a class presentation at Autodesk University #AU2012 which will be presented by Gary Morin Director of Keynetix and special guest Dave Simeone (AutoCAD Civil 3D Product Manager) which will also preview this technology.

    If there will be the facility to input manually (like we do with the current Borehole Importer tool) then this would be a useful workaround.
    I still think there’s a long way to go to prise AGS data from various clients (some are even reluctant to issue CAD drawings..!!) even with the current BIM buzzwords

    Neil,
    Thank you for your kind comments about the native Keynetix functionality – I think you will be pleased with how it is looking in Civil 3D.
    Getting data from clients rather than just information can be hard work but seems to be getting much better recently and BIM is helping this a great deal in my opinion.

    If it can be used in Civil 3D, I could be very happy..:)..the native Keynetix functionality is certainly very impressive…I look forward to the AU2012 presentation
    Just need to convince consultants etc to provide AGS data files rather than scanned pdfs of the logs 🙁

    Read my words again, you should be happy
    Civil regards

    Whilst you obviously can’t comment on unreleased products, I hope that this won’t just be restricted to the Infrastructure Design Suite products and that those of us on subscription (using Plain old Civil 3D) won’t be left out in the cold…!!!!!
