Navigating change within communities can be challenging. If residents and stakeholders struggle to visualise what a new development will look like, it can be difficult to obtain the social license necessary to proceed.
If you could showcase complex developments in a way that residents and stakeholders understand, and you could engage with your community more easily, what impact would that have on your project? Would it help achieve public acceptance? Would it reduce negative reviews of a development? Would this help you save time and money?
The infrastructure project lifecycle typically involves several key phases, from planning and design to construction and maintenance. Autodesk provides a variety of solutions that can enhance each stage of this lifecycle, allowing improved efficiency and collaboration, and projects that better meet the needs of your communities.
Offering best-in-class 2D and 3D drafting and design software, Autodesk is trusted by millions of users worldwide. Bundled into one package, solutions such as Autodesk InfraWorks, Civil 3D, Vehicle Tracking, Revit, Twinmotion, and AutoCAD can help you bring your complex engineering designs to life with clarity and beauty.
Autodesk’s solutions offer improved visibility, communication, collaboration and adaptability through the digitisation of data. They take complex developments out of the realm of designers and allow community members to access and visualise the project information, ensuring easy communication of project plans, updates and changes.
Digitising infrastructure design correlates with improved sustainability by optimising materials and minimising waste. This approach can help your council achieve its sustainability goals in an increasingly environmentally conscious industry.
Solutions for councils
Plan, design, construct, and operate resilient, sustainable, high-performance infrastructure in a common data environment. Whether you need to repair, upgrade or expand existing roads, modernise essential infrastructure or deliver safe and accessible water to your communities, Autodesk’s solutions provide an array of specialised tools ensuring the unique needs of any council project can be met.
InfraWorks
InfraWorks provides an immersive, engaging experience making it easier for stakeholders and community members to understand complex designs. Help your community visualise urban planning projects and proposed developments in a real-world context, assess their impact on the surrounding environment, and facilitate better community engagement.
Twinmotion
With Twinmotion for Revit, users create, visualise, and analyse large infrastructure designs in a 3D environment. The program can be used in conjunction with InfraWorks to enhance the design process and provide stakeholders with a realistic view of proposed projects. The program is best suited for use in urban development projects, including transportation networks, public spaces and community layouts.
Civil 3D
Civil 3D enables planners to design roads and active transport paths that improve connectivity in communities while minimising land use. It’s also suitable for designing water, wastewater and stormwater systems, ensuring efficient, compliant and sustainable infrastructure.
Revit
Revit is most often used in urban planning and development, such as to design parks, recreational facilities and public spaces. Revit allows planners to create detailed 3D models of proposed developments and impacts on surrounding areas, enabling engagement with the community on how land is used and zoned.
Water Solutions
Autodesk’s water solutions help users design, analyse and manage water distribution systems, stormwater management and wastewater treatment facilities. By visualising water systems and infrastructure data, local governments can communicate more effectively with the public and stakeholders about projects, initiatives and community impacts.
Construction Cloud
Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) is a comprehensive solution that integrates various tools for project management, collaboration, and data management in the construction industry. By adopting ACC, local governments can enhance their efficiency, accountability, and collaboration, leading to better services for the community.
