New Zealand firm, Gary Pidd Architect Ltd, has moved to the cutting edge of technology with its innovative use of 12d Model civil and surveying software from 4D Solutions, for an ongoing project to build a database of more than 200 schools.

Australian developer of civil and surveying software, 4D Solutions, has entered into an agreement with Tokyo-based Sokkia Pty Ltd that will see 4Ds 12d Model replace SDR Mapping and Design software in Australia, New Zealand and Asia.

The initial roll-out of 4D Solutions Australian-developed civil and surveying software, 12d Model Version 5.0, is all but complete with the product being demonstrated at seminars countrywide.
