Infrasoft’s Civil Design Software Successfully Completes LandXML 1.0

Validation Process New Application-Specific MXURBAN is Prime Example of LandXML-in-progress

Beverly, Massachusetts – November 4, 2002 – Infrasoft Corporation®, a global supplier of IT solutions for civil engineering, today announced its MX software suite has successfully completed the LandXML 1.0 validation process, and fully complies with LandXML.org specifications and guidelines. LandXML is an emerging data standard being developed to facilitate the exchange of data created during the site planning, civil engineering, and land survey process. Infrasoft was one of the early supporters and adopters of the LandXML standard for the open exchange of civil engineering data The company serves on the LandXML.org Advisory Board, along with other vendors and government agencies such as the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Federal Highway Administration. Infrasoft Corporation develops the award-winning Arenium collaborative engineering product, and the MX product line-- MXURBAN, MXROAD, MXRAIL, MXRENEW and MXDRAW for road design and renewal, site development, and rail engineering.

When a data format such as LandXML is compatible with all industry software, new specialized software applications or plug-ins will flow from the initiative. A prime example of LandXML-in-progress, MXURBAN is an application-specific software program developed for reconstructing roadways in highly confined urban and suburban settings. This task-oriented solution provides automated wizards to help users quickly define the outer road envelope, then creates a best-fitting design in real-time. Roadway designs created in MXURBAN and exported into the LandXML data format can be utilized by other civil engineering software and CAD platforms. Civil engineering firms quickly benefit from productivity-enhancing software toolsets like MXURBAN, and at the same time, realize a rapid ROI (return on investment) due to the high level of data interoperability with other software applications.

LandXML is based on the XML (Extensible Markup Language) for structuring and delivering information via the Web. The emerging data standard is intended to address a variety of issues including data compatibility, design data submission and transmission, quantity take-off/cost estimation, and long term data archival.
