  1. What’s Coming in 2013

  2. Objectives • Kick off a new year with a look ahead. • Share information on 2013 scheduled software releases. • Brief look at research and development plans extending past 2013. • Get opinions on possible enhancements.

  3. Summary of Permanent Crash Cushion Update • Roadway Design Bulletin 13-01 Design Standards, Index 430 "Crash Cushion Details“ • Requires an update to the summary box for Permanent Crash Cushions • An update is available on our Communities site at: http://communities.bentley.com/communities/user_communities/fdot_cadd_support/m/fdot2010_post_mr3_updates/231482.aspx • Poll: Do you find our Bentley Communities site helpful?

  4. Training Events • Webinars • Submit topic requests to: ecso.support@dot.state.fl.us • Design Training Expo 2013 http://www.dot.state.fl.us/structures/designexpo2013/default_original.shtm • Spring FLUG - Cape Canaveral - June 26-28 • Fall FLUG – Tampa – December

  5. FDOT2010 MR4 • Maintenance Release 4 for FDOT2010 will be available in late January. • Contains mainly bug fixes • Enhancement – Linked Data Manager (LDM) • Possible Enhancement – New “Heavy” font • Possible Enhancement – Application usage reports • Poll: Would you find the addition of a heavier font useful?

  6. New Application - LDM • LDM is an application that can be used to link spreadsheets, ASCII text documents, and CSV files in MicroStation design files. • LDM Webinar on 01-30-2013

  7. Application Usage Reports • On of the more difficult parts of developing the FDOT workspace is managing resources. • Prioritize maintenance of existing applications • Identify under utilized tools • Reduce expenditures • Investigate reason for low usage • Identify most utilized tools • Define training needs • Support staffing • Maintenance \ Modification impacts • Cad Pilot can tabulate how many times each application is run. • ECSO could then review utilization statistics. • Poll: Would you be willing to share your utilization reports?

  8. FDOT2012.C3D • Our first Civil 3D based workspace, FDOT2012.C3D, should be released early 2nd quarter • We will request that at least 5 new projects start using Civil 3D in 2013 • Project Managers choice as to platform used • Support for both platforms will continue

  9. CPCH Update • A significant update to the CADD Production Criteria Handbook (CPCH) should be released early 2nd quarter of 2013. • Streamlined Electronic Delivery • Digital Signature • Autodesk language added

  10. Streamlined Electronic Delivery • Deliver the CADD Files • Empty directories can be deleted • Composite PDFs • Eliminated need to sign / seal sheet image plot files of every single sheet • Signing and Sealing can be done electronically with PEDDS or Digital Signature • Each FPID of a strung project is a separate set of delivered data under its own directory

  11. FDOTSS2 • FDOTSS2 is a replacement for FDOT2010. The primary goal is to update versions of MicroStation\GEOPAK or PowerGEOPAK. • Based on next GEOPAK Select Series (SS) 2 Refresh. • FDOT will use new PowerGEOPAK based on MicroStation SS 3 and GEOPAK SS 2 Refresh. • May Include: • New Custom Linestyles • Annotation Scale

  12. FDOT2014.C3D • New development for FDOT2012.C3D will end February 15th and conversion to the Civil 3D 2013\14 version will begin. • Potential July release of 2013\14 version.

  13. 3D Design • It’s likely that incentives (Federal MAP21 and Everyday Counts) for 3D design is forthcoming. • We will request that beginning in January 2014, all new projects begin using 3D design as the foundation for the plans for projects that can benefit from 3D modeling • Poll: Have you started to utilize 3D design techniques (GEOPAK Corridor Modeling or Civil 3D)?

  14. FDOTSS3 • FDOTSS3 is being developed to support an upcoming GEOPAK SS 3 release. • Major overhaul of FDOT workspace is required. • Annotation Scale • Element Templates • Civil Features • Project Explorer • Design Standards • Civil Geometry • Civil Accudraw • Civil Cells • New Workflows • New Training Manuals

  15. Consultant TAC • Formation of a Consultant Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) is being considered • Multi discipline • Meet (GoToMeeting) at least quarterly • Occasional send questions via email • Provide input on direction and development • Report issues relating to consultant environment • Those interested please send an email to jimmie.prow@dot.state.fl.us stating interest

  16. Other R&D • ProjectWise • Subsurface Utility Design and Analysis (SUDA) • Bentley Map • Windows 8 • Mobile / Cloud based computing

  17. Conclusion • It’s going to be a very busy year. • January - FDOT2010 MR4 • April – CPCH Update, FDOT2012.C3D, Streamlined Electronic Delivery • July – FDOTSS2, FDOT2014.C3D • 3D Design!!! Soon to be required. Get a head start. • FDOTSS3 • Questions?
