You have a better choice of technology with OpenSite Designer

OpenSite Designer Is the Real Deal

Many software providers say they have an application for land development and site design, but do they really? With Bentley, it’s not just talk. We deliver the real deal. OpenSite Designer was built to accelerate the development and delivery of global site projects from concept through construction. It provides complete detailed design capabilities for rapid site modeling and analysis, earthwork optimization and quantification, drainage and underground utilities, and automated project delivery. Discover how OpenSite Designer offers you a better choice of technology.

Better Data Aquisition

Collecting data in the field is an important start to any infrastructure project and an equally important factor to timely project delivery. Not only do you need the ability to quickly, comprehensively, and precisely capture existing conditions to produce accurate 3D models, but you also need an application that can easily consume data from a variety of sources. If your current software can’t do this, then you’re losing time and money. Jump start your next project with OpenSite Designer.

OpenSite Designer helps you effectively understand existing conditions on your site, under your site, and around it to see how your designs interact in reality context. The ability to incorporate, analyze, and manipulate a wide range of data such as point clouds, reality meshes, photogrammetry, total station surveys and terrain early in the design phase results in:

Minimized survey rework and design delays by acquiring broader and more detailed reality data during the project onset.
Improved safety in the field, environment, and for the community.
Accelerated project delivery with the ability to eliminate errors and design changes early in the project.

BETTER DATA ACQUISITION leads to Better Context, Better Understanding, Better Models, and BETTER DECISIONS.

Better Collaboration

Site development engineers have many partners on a project including architects, geotechnical, structural, and environmental. To successfully work together, you need transparency of project details, the ability to easily communicate across teams, and the capability to integrate data from multiple disciplines. That’s why designers and engineers turn to OpenSite Designer.

OpenSite Designer’s model-centric environment improves collaboration by giving you a full view of the project and all its data in a single composite model. By integrating data from multiple disciplines into your 3D design model, you’ll easily see how it interacts early in the design process to ensure all project data is working together without conflict. See it, use it, analyze it, all in your own application from conception through construction.

Whether you’re modeling refineries, hospitals, wastewater treatment plants, or schools, OpenSite Designer’s open modeling environment allows you to combine 3D project data from any source to enrich project understanding, make better engineering decisions, and reduce risk by minimizing errors and omissions prior to construction.

BETTER COLLABORATION leads to Better Ideas, Better Quality, Better Productivity, and BETTER OUTCOMES.

Better Project Delivery

Site designers need the ability to rapidly model projects to discover alternate designs that deliver better solutions in less time. These projects also have a significant risk that needs to be identified and controlled as early in the design process as possible - earth movement. The magnitude of this cost is typically unknown until the final design is nearly complete. With OpenSite Designer, accelerate design production, identify risk early, and understand your project’s financial feasibility within minutes of completing your layout.

Better Productivity begins with Better Technology
Accelerate design production using parametric interactive modeling, dynamic relationships, and exclusive analytical optimization technology. With the ability to rapidly model design intent in minutes, you’ll have more time to evaluate designs not once, but multiple times to find the best solution for your client.
Better Project Delivery begins with Better Change Management
Address revisions earlier in the project reducing risk, re-work, cost-overruns, and project delays. Using a model-centric approach, designs are dynamically updated throughout the model, guaranteeing that the current design is up to date and readily available for all team members. This approach not only removes frustrating and tedious work for the designer, but also positively impacts your organization and your client.

BETTER TECHNOLOGY AND CHANGE MANAGEMENT leads to Better Productivity, Better Accuracy, Better Value, and BETTER PROJECT DELIVERY.
