Nov 29, 2011 — Today, BLUERIDGE Analytics® unveiled a new 3D visualization tool for SITEOPS®, via export to Trimble SketchUp, providing more aesthetic attributes in site design for civil engineers, architects and landscape architects. This new feature enhances the conceptual capabilities of SITEOPS, revolutionary site-optimization software.
"SITEOPS, a leader in conceptual design, has combined its layout capabilities with the 3D modeling features of Trimble SketchUp to forever revolutionize conceptual design in the AEC industry," said Mike Detwiler, President and CEO of BLUERIDGE Analytics.
SITEOPS users can now import site layouts with parking lots, driveways, islands, curbs, parking lines and building pads directly into Trimble SketchUp by simply clicking a button in SITEOPS. Harnessing both the power of SITEOPS and the ease of use of Trimble SketchUp, users can quickly generate budgets with realistic 3D renderings. The software also allows for a quick visualization of proposed grading plans, including Geotech layers, as well as the automatic draping of underlay images to proposed surfaces.
"The SITEOPS technology in conjunction with Trimble SketchUp is impressive," said Tom Wyman, Business Development Manager for SketchUp. "We're excited to work with the SITEOPS team to provide these easy to use, visualization capabilities to the AEC market."
With access to the Trimble SketchUp 3D Warehouse, users have unlimited 3D models at their fingertips to visualize their site plans. The Trimble SketchUp button is only available with the purchase of SITEOPS® Grading and Piping Module.
