OpenRoads Designer – Site Design

This advanced training is designed to build on lessons and concepts learned in the introductory course titled OpenRoads Fundamentals. The goal is to expand your knowledge to be able to tackle more advanced designs. Workflows used for site design, as opposed to linear road design, are emphasized in many of the exercises. We do not cover design fundamentals, instead looking at OpenRoads tools, workflows, and techniques which will allow you to accomplish more advanced site modeling scenarios.
