Use Mobility Simulation for InfraWorks® to conduct pedestrian mobility simulations that factor in global design challenges presented by COVID-19.

The global population is growing and urbanizing — by 2050, there will be around 10 billion people on the planet, according to the United Nations, and 70 percent of those will be living in cities. This means that nations all over the world will have to invest in upgrading existing civil structures as well as […]

Autodesk first introduced the integration of BIM and Esri’s GIS data through InfraWorks, enabling the opportunity of better infrastructure design by establishing a richer, real-world context model of the project. InfraWorks design software supports BIM processes. Civil Engineering professionals can conceptualize, optimize, and visualize infrastructure projects—all in the context of the built and natural environment. […]

Register today!   From urbanization to increased regulatory pressures, plant designers are being challenged to deliver better and safer facilities on time and on budget. The use of BIM workflows can help accelerate project setup, improve collaboration and cost management, minimize errors and omissions, and enable better design through visualization. Meet Andy Manze, Autodesk’s AEC […]

Hi civil infrastructure community! Over the next 30 years, by 2050, nearly 10 billion people will live on the planet.​ And two-thirds of us will live in cities. If you’re in the civil engineering space, then you know first-hand the tremendous work ahead of us in order to not only maintain current infrastructure but also to plan […]

Context Modeling is the process of building an enriched, existing conditions project framework. With the tools found in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction Collection you can process LiDAR and/or drone-based data, connect to ArcGIS organizations, and import many other data types to build an intelligent model to base your project designs from. By utilizing current, […]

With the demand for infrastructure at unprecedented levels, these 2018 AEC Excellence Award winners showcase how the future of infrastructure is taking place right now and in incredible ways. Empresa Desarrollo Urbano de Medellín (EDU) A public entity, the Empresa Desarrollo Urbano de Medellín (EDU) used BIM tools to plan safer communities for people living […]
