RDV for Autodesk Civil 3D
Our flagship product seamlessly integrated with AutoCAD Civil 3D
Description / Benefits:
Rapid Design Visualization (RDV) is an application developed specifically for use with Autodesk Civil 3D.
RDV enables any Civil 3D user to create a fully interactive visualization environment directly from their Civil 3D project. Using RDV for Civil 3D designers can easily create drive through simulations, flyovers and interactive simulations for proposed roads, subdivisions, underground infrastructure, interchanges and many other complex land development projects.
RDV's interactive simulations are cost effective during every phase of the project from preliminary design validation for internal use through to presentations for public review and even on the construction site.. RDV for Civil 3D is web enabled so that users can easily publish their simulations to the internet or intranet enabling them to communicate their design intent to anyone, anywhere and at anytime.
RDV for Civil 3D was developed in coordination with Autodesk’s Civil 3D development team.
