Autodesk Revit to Get Free TurboSite Plug-In
IMSI®/Design launched TurboSite™ Plug-In For Autodesk® Revit®. Using this free plug-in, Revit users can now -- for the first time -- view geolocated video, photos, markup, and text notes taken from the field directly within the Revit application.
TurboSite, an app that turns mobile devices such as Apple's iPad® and iPhone® into a first-of-its-kind field reporting tool, was recently awarded 2013 AIA National Convention's "Best of Show."
With TurboSite, there is no more hauling plans into a building, everything is right on your iPad or iPhone. GPS or SPS™ knows where you're at in your plan. At any spot you can create a geolocated GeoMark™ and, using the built-in camera, take as many photos, videos, dictation, and text notes that you want. Redline a drawing with powerful markup, dimension, and inquiry tools, or have a real-time video conference via FaceTime or Skype from directly in your building plan. Immediately share your report electronically with your entire design and construction team at the touch of a button... or instantly print a customized PDF report and distribute hardcopy. Creating a field report has never been so easy.
With the launch of TurboSite Plug-In For Revit, all Revit users on a project can, for the first time, view correctly geolocated video, photo, markup, and text documentation directly within Revit.
Providing round-trip field report workflow between the job site and home office, free TurboSite Plug-In For Revit cuts up to 80% of the burden of traditional site inspections, completely automating the field reporting process.
