Part 1 | Overcoming Your Biggest Site Design Challenges

Having a custom tool capable of addressing all phases of site design and land development is critical. To meet client requirements and win bids, there is a need to quickly determine project feasibility and cost estimates while working on residential and commercial development projects.

Join our product expert David Settlemyer in the first of a three-part webinar series as he demonstrates how OpenSite automates tedious and manual work to significantly reduce site design time. Whatever your design, however complex, we will show you how OpenSite can handle it faster and easier. 

What you will learn:

  • How to improve site layout modeling and model multiple design scenarios for a project 
  • How to incorporate OpenSite into your daily workflow 
  • Parametric design tools for quick layout
  • How to acquire existing site typography and conditions in minutes

Part 2 | Automation in Site and Land Design

Creating grading and stormwater plans can be one of the most time-consuming elements of site design, but with OpenSite, it doesn’t have to be.
