CADconform and the Transportation Industry

The transportation industry and governmental departments of transportation keep our world moving, with a broad range of roles and responsibilities: from roadway and bridge planning, design and maintenance; to railway systems; to design, operation and maintenance of airports; to cartography and geospatial information systems.

CAD data is a critical element of these projects and services. Standardized CAD data provides an opportunity for increased efficiency, reduced costs, and advanced data re-use.

Using CADconform to promote and enforce 100% conformance to CAD standards lets transportation companies and governmental agencies use standards-conformed CAD data to:

• Eliminate drafting errors and ensure the accuracy of design drawings for safe operations of roadways, bridges, railways and airports.

• Automate input to advanced systems such as geospatial information systems, in support of government requirements such as homeland security and emergency preparedness.
