Swept Path Analysis – The Full Process

Whether you’re designing roads, rails, airports, or anything else, you need to ensure vehicles can move safely and effectively through your sites. Autodesk Vehicle Tracking is the industry-leading software to help you ensure vehicular traffic moves effectively throughout your design environment. Vehicle Tracking fully integrates into the AutoCAD Civil 3D model environment for both horizontal and vertical clearances/controls. Vehicle Tracking also has amazing parking lot design capabilities and best of all, since it’s part of the AEC Collection, you likely already own the software! Why not learn to effectively use this powerful tool you’re already paying for?

ZenTek Consultants, the nation’s leading civil/site design experts can show you everything you need to know about swept path analysis with the Autodesk Vehicle Tracking system.

This eight (8) hour course is delivered in four (4), two-hour long sessions that students can attend online, right from their own desk. A live instructor will explain the detailed functions, and address questions as the class progresses.
