Ongoing Software Development

Friday, April 17th, 2009

For years we have been developing software both to deal with project-specific tasks and to give us a competitive edge in the world of civil geometry. A new “integration engine” that allows our software to handle any type of transition curve, not just the familiar clothoid is now complete. This will allow us to more effectively resolve the geometry of structures that carry traditional “light rail” as well as high-speed rail.  Developed in the VBA language and embedded in Microsoft Excel, this software picks up where most other civil/survey software comes up short.  Many engineers and construction surveyors have developed their own library of spreadsheets to handle the tougher challenges that we face.  “Civil Geometry” provides those at the cutting edge of geometric development work to combine their Excel skills with a powerful set of COGO/alignment oriented functions embedded right in their spreadsheets.  This package is available free of charge to those needing the ultimate in civil number crunching capabilities.  Contact us for details.
