3D Work Environments

This document explores the challenges and solutions related to 3D work environments in civil engineering, focusing on the experiences of MoDOT's CADD support engineer, Alexa Mitchell. Key issues such as the gap between 2D and 3D data, resistance to change, and the lack of resources and guidelines are discussed. The document also emphasizes the importance of outreach, education, and collaboration with software vendors and the consulting community. It advocates for improved data storage and distribution solutions, aiming to showcase successful projects that leverage 3D modeling.

  1. 3D Work Environments Alexa Mitchell, P.E. CADD Support Engineer - MoDOT

  2. 3D Work Environments • Processing & Workflow Developments • Archive, Distribution, Viewing Solutions • Issues between 2D & 3D

  3. 3D Work Environments • Processing & Workflow Developments • Contract management process is centralized • Annual flight program standard contract • Per project “on-call” contracts (MOU’s) - $100K cap • Focus on deliverables: survey report, DTM’s, 3D geometry, point clouds • Turn-key solution for survey mapping • Quality control done by central office

  4. 3D Work Environments • Archive, Distribution, Viewing Solutions • No archival plans at this time • Original data stored in a dedicated network location • District production copy distributed through ProjectWise (Engineering Document Management System). • Viewing solutions – Microstation/(PowerGeopak) civil tools such as point cloud tools & data acquisition tools • Need better solutions – for data storage & distribution (cloud type environment)

  5. 3D Work Environments • Issues between 2D & 3D • Resistance to change • Lack of management support • Lack of resources (hardware, software, trained/support staff & funding) • Conflicting priorities within the DOT goals • Limitation of civil design tools • Lack of guidelines and documented best practices • Lack of communication

  6. 3D Work Environments • Opportunities… • Outreach to educate the end user • Outreach to train key users • Understand all the needs of everyone involved • Keep being an advocate for change • Work with your software vendor • Work with your consulting community • Showcase projects “paper plans” vs. models • Find support in unlikely places • Be an opportunist
