The New Infrakit version brings more CDE features and an enhanced 3D experience! 

Release blog posts may not be the most popular ones we’ve got, but we could argue that they are high value providing hidden gems for those that do open these. Seems that you are one of those pioneers, and forerunners of the industry, so congratulate yourself on being on the tip of the iceberg, by educating yourself to be the ”digitalization champion” who rides the tide!  

For release 3.8.2 of Infrakit OFFICE, we focused on making features that help manage all project documents in Infrakit, not only the ones you would visualize on the map. Together with that, we have enhanced the 3D BIM viewing. In other words, these features enable you to work faster,  collaborate better, and be the star of your project! 

Optimize your data management with new CDE features

It’s no big secret that data management is the key to successful projects. This time we focused to enhance our CDE features by adding you an opportunity to set and manage properties for your files. 

Was it either file categories of Design Disciplines, Model maturities, or phases of the project, property management saves you a ton of time. Add your custom property as a number, text value, or in a list of options. 

Check how to use it from the video below! 

Simplify your mountain of information 

Infraprojects tend to have quite an overwhelming amount of files… Thus, filtering and sorting out the ones you don’t need in the UI brings simplicity.  

To enable this step by step, we developed another CDE feature, which enables you to make any file or folder dispappear from the visualization apps.  As an example, you can use the Infrakit as single source of truth platform for all the project files. Store and manage the revisioning of the native drawings that are not meant for map projection. With this feature those files are not bugging the users of the Map page. 

We also introduced handy left-click menus on web UI, make sure you don’t miss that one! 

The video below once again will show you a quick and easy way of using this feature! 

Become a superior collaborator with enhanced 3D’s and point clouds 

Wouldn’t you want to be the champion, who makes everyone in project-wide collaboration feel happy and safe? Yea, that is precisely why (once again), we used a ton of focus on making Infrakit help you to be the champion. 

Infrakit’s high-power 3D engine can smoothly render your map and 3D data in one view on any modern hardware (yeah, that’s including phones and tablets). The 3D view now also enables you to see the station numbers of alignments, enabling finding the right spot on the project even handier. On top of these, the new version enables you to select multiple point clouds to be visualized at the same time!  

These features not only make the designs and visualizations of the site look good but you as well!

We are delighted to have the Infrakit version 3.8.1. up and running. There are some great new features for you to have a seamless experience in your daily work using Infrakit. We gathered the three most important highlights for you to quickly grasp on, what the new version holds and how it will make your life at the site better! 

Brand spanking new IFC models on map  

It is unfortunately true, that many times 3D rendering is waay too complex to manage, especially on mobile over a bad network. Therefore, we are super happy to bring the new IFC Outline generation for you, which enhances the mobile experience! 2D rendering is important especially on mobile, to avoid complexity and long waiting times. With the new version and reparsing, you will have a collaboration model in 2D, earthworks, and structures in one view. Easier and faster than ever, right?

Supercharged communication with new annotation tools 

Communication with the new annotation tools for Saved views is made easier than ever. Internally they help you for example sharing agendas in site meetings, showcasing risks and traffic plans, or requesting information from designers, externally you can share traffic arrangement information. 

The power of Saved views is greater than ever, and that power is in the palms of your hands! 

A new era of Security – SSO Login  

Managing your project information in Infrakit is now almost as safe as keeping your gold in Fort Knox… Now it is time for you to call your organization’s IT gurus and tell them to connect your organization’s Azure AD to Infrakit!  

Why? You know better than anyone, that it is everyday life on a site where subcontractors are coming and going, and project staff changes. With Azure AD connection, data security is ensured with an up-to-date user register that automatically syncs up with your organization’s register.

Welcome the Infrakit version 3.8.0, where your construction collaboration is brought to a whole new level!

We are delighted to release the Infrakit version 3.8.0 to general availability! This version brings many long-awaited features, such as turbo-charged 3D visualization, mobile access to saved views, and wider support for Kilometer posts of Railway stationing. And these are only to name a few of the absolute highlights of the release. 

Fast loading and rendering of 3D visuals 

Infrakit has now an intelligent way of optimizing the visualization of 3D models. Firstly, the time for model files to open is now drastically quicker. Secondly, all content opened renders about 10x faster! This improves your experience of 3D visualization on large job sites. 

Please note the new Shade button that highlights the edges of the structures also when they are under other models.  

Psst… look at those even more awesome point clouds! 

Mobile Saved Views 

Collaboration from the field can now be done at a whole new level. With mobile access to saved views, you will be able to select a subset view of the site and share it with all the users you want to collaborate with on the field. Were you either inside your office or on the field with only a mobile phone in your pocket, saved views will save a ton of time and effort from you by showing only the necessary information that another user wanted to share with you.  

Railway kilometer posts 

If you are using Infrakit in a railroad construction project, this is an absolute must-have for you guys, and we are happy to have it ready for you. Now that all the kilometer posts, hence, stations are displayed in Infrakit, locating documents and all the other information is a peace-of-cake. Further improvements to this feature are upcoming in later releases!
