Five Questions With Dan and Dave

Posted by James Wedding, P.E. on 18th June 2008

Part of a new occasionally recurring series, my friends Dave Simeone and Dan Philbrick have agreed to answer five interview questions from the Civil3d.com audience. Submit your best question as a comment, and we’ll edit and pass them along for their written answers. This might take a while to get back, but we hope to see future versions with other members of the Autodesk (and other CE industry folks even) team that perhaps you’re less familiar with.  Be nice and be professional if you want your question used! This doesn’t mean you have to throw softballs, but don’t expect flames to be passed along.

Follow the jump and post your questions!

Beyond Parcel, Sewer, and Road Maps

Posted by James Wedding, P.E. on 27th January 2008

I don’t have a commute, so I tend to fall really behind on my podcasts, but as I flipped through my choices, I saw one that I simply had to listen to: Mapping on This America Life. Most C3D users spend so much time wrapped up in the minutiae of land development and our view of the world, that we often don’t even think about the other maps out there. Maybe some were made with software like we use, but a lot of maps are so specific, and so unusual, that they simply make you think, “What is a map?” The first “act” was based on sight, and my favorite of the bunch.

Successful Civil 3D Implementations: A Case Study

Posted by Mark Scacco, P.E. on 6th December 2007

Over the past several months, EE has worked with a few of our clients to create 3 case studies about successful Civil 3D implementations.

The 3 case studies are broken down by size of firm: Small (1-20 ppl); Mid-size (20-50); and Large (50+)

You can download the entire paper by following the link after the jump.

Direct from the Funk.

Posted by James Wedding, P.E. on 8th August 2007

It’s always good to have friends come visit. This week, many of my friends in the Autodesk Civil team were in town at their Plano office. They’re working on great things for the next year and beyond. In spite of his crazy schedule, Peter Funk was kind enough to play guinea pig for our first recorded interview. Take a listen after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
