Civil Engineering & Design

Build the Design

Our partnerships with Autodesk and Bentley allow design files to move quickly from engineers to field survey teams, improving information management throughout the design and build process.

IMPLEMENT DESIGN INTENTIONS IN THE REAL WORLD

Controlling data flow, protecting its integrity, and improving communication between field and office are key elements as design concepts come to life, and stakeout transforms models into reality.

Sync With Bentley®

Seamless Integration

Sharing between our MAGNET Software Solutions and Bentley’s ProjectWise platform is now seamless. You can import Bentley iModels right into your MAGNET Field or Office job, and even select exactly what data in the iModel you want to transfer.

Data interoperability through MAGNET Enterprise allows you to connect to your Bentley ProjectWise instance and have direct access to your projects and iModels. The iModels can then be sent to the field, used in your office projects, or stored in Enterprise Data Manager for access at any time. You can select what data you want to import such as points, linework, and more, giving you more power and functionality.

Field crews can use the iModel in MAGNET Field for their tasks and then send the updated data back to ProjectWise or to MAGNET Office Tools for processing. The direct connection between MAGNET Enterprise and Bentley ProjectWise allows users to easily integrate this new option into their daily workflows.

Stress-free workflows

Keep your teams productive and confident with the software they know. Office staff working within Bentley’s platform can now directly exchange specific requested data with the MAGNET system. With the interoperability between Bentley and the MAGNET System, office staff are now able to be “at the project site” virtually and ready to respond to any changes or challenges that may arise. File transfer and sharing between the two software products is more than a time saver, it’s a game changer.

AUTOCONNECT WITH AUTODESK

MAGNET Enterprise is the central hub of the entire MAGNET system of solutions. Purpose-built for managers, all features and functionality are geared towards saving time and making money. Even while on the move, managers stay connected and informed while using the no-cost MAGNET Enterprise mobile app for Apple iPad devices.

The go-to for processing and reporting on the quality of field work being done daily is MAGNET Office Tools software. Seamless sharing between Autodesk's AutoCAD Civil 3D platform is automatic. Once field crews have sent up what they have done so far, processing within MAGNET Office Tools is clear and understood. A single button click within MAGNET Office Tools and all 3D data is quickly transferred directly into your Civil 3D environment for further design.

Then the other way. All civil design data that is originated within an AutoCAD Civil 3D session is exported directly as a single sharable file. MAGNET Office Tools software serves as the secure gateway to send instantly to mobile field crews.

The pipeline of information is now established. Office staff that work in their comfort zone of Autodesk's Civil 3D platform are just a click away.

SEAMLESS TRANSFER FOR A STRESS-FREE WORKFLOW

Keeping teams productive and confident within familiar software environments is a goal for any manager and owner. Office staff working currently within Autodesk's AutoCAD Civil 3D platform have now been given the power to directly exchange with the MAGNET system.

Through the established fusion between AutoCAD Civil 3D and MAGNET Office Tools, office staff are now able to be ""at the project site"" and ready to respond to any changes or challenges that may arise.

File transfer between the two software products is more than a time saver, it is a game changer.

Terrestrial Scanning

Dimensional Structure Location

Each and every jobsite presents its own set of unique challenges. 3D laser scanners deployed under such circumstances need to be versatile enough to meet the varied demands of the job. Topcon’s GLS-2000 series offer three different models to choose from based on the range requirements of the target application.

Moreover, offering multiple measurement modes that enable switching between laser classes (3R/ 1M) on a scan-by-scan basis, the GLS-2000 scanners series deliver the perfect mix of industry leading technology and user-friendly operations.

AS-BUILT SESSIONS AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT

Combined with MAGNET Collage software, the GLS-2000 series provide users with a single solution to capture, visualize, and extract features from complex environments with an unmatched combination of speed, accuracy, and detail.

ARRIVE. SCAN. PERFORM.

The three different GLS-2000 series model selection empower you to select the range requirements that best suit your needs. Selectable measurement modes, empowers you to choose the optimal scanning speed / range based on site conditions on a scan-by-scan basis. Each measurement mode setting allows you to achieve specified accuracies on just a single pass, reducing overall time per station setup.

Road Design Made Simple

ALL ROADS LEAD HERE

The coordination, execution, and management of simple to complex road projects has been put in the fast lane. Leveraging the entire MAGNET system, each player gains the ability to perform their part of the larger project at ease.

While on the go, managers have instant access to their own secure environment using the no-cost MAGNET Enterprise Mobile app specific for Apple iPad devices. Whether standing directly at a potential project site or an existing active site, all of your project related data and team members are a screen tap and swipe away.

Office staff with MAGNET Office software enjoy the large library of industry file formats, intuitive options to further design, and vivid ability to see proposed work within a 3D fly through - to see challenges, before they become a problem.

Mobile field crews stay connected in their own comfort zone of MAGNET Field data collection software. The sky is the limit with customization. Each stakeout and field measurement is prompted and displayed just as each team member prefers it. Send up what was done, and download what needs to be tackled next, the MAGNET system brings teams together like never before.

IMPROVED FIELD AND OFFICE EFFICIENCY

The connectivity is expected. Beyond that, getting the job done correctly and on time is clearly the goal for all players. MAGNET Field data collection software as well as MAGNET Office design suite each offer flexible customization options that streamline daily tasks.

Move anywhere along the defined centerline with confidence knowing that your accurate location is ready at anytime to represent design data onsite. Options for multiple stake references, offsets, and notice for any work that is out of tolerance is now common place.

Office staff rely on the fluid ability to import and work within existing design data, further that design with intuitive tools, and ultimately see what was done to gain confidence before moving on. MAGNET Office software offers easy ability to import, improve, isolate, to then see and share.
