Description

In contrast to other CAD and GIS applications, this software was specifically designed with urban planners in mind from its inception, facilitating the creation of 3D models that utilize established building styles and urban forms. CityCAD provides a streamlined and efficient method for drafting urban masterplans in three dimensions. When routes intersect, junctions are formed with straightforward kerb radii automatically. Moreover, if you adjust the positioning of roads, the surrounding urban blocks are resized automatically. This software also includes an array of advanced analytical tools, offering valuable quantitative insights into your masterplan during the initial conceptual design phases. Users can build a personalized library of land use categories and assign these to different building floors. Additionally, you can input estimates for energy consumption, water usage, and waste generation rates (calculated per person, dwelling unit, or area unit), with total figures being computed in real-time as you develop and refine your design. This capability allows for a more responsive and informed planning process, enabling users to make adjustments based on immediate feedback.

Description

Facilitate the planning and examination of urban development by analyzing the complex relationships among land use, transportation systems, economic factors, and environmental considerations. Investigate how various infrastructure decisions and policy implementations impact community results, including access for both motorized and non-motorized transport, housing affordability, levels of greenhouse gas emissions, and the preservation of open spaces and ecologically sensitive areas. Rapidly set up and initiate UrbanSim simulations utilizing the advantages of cloud-based technology. Provide actionable insights that are accessible to users, regardless of their technical proficiency. The UrbanSim block-level template is pre-equipped with employment, household, and socioeconomic data for nearly 400 Metropolitan Planning Organizations throughout the United States, alongside street networks sourced from OpenStreetMap to effectively calculate accessibility metrics. This comprehensive approach ensures that urban planners can make informed decisions that support sustainable growth and community well-being.
