Manual validation of survey plans is a critical yet time-consuming task for many organizations, essential for ensuring plans integrate seamlessly into enterprise data sets. However, this traditional approach is fraught with potential errors and inefficiencies. Automated plan checking offers a revolutionary solution by using FME to meticulously review and validate CAD files against stringent specification requirements and standards. This approach ensures accuracy and compliance, significantly reducing the manual burden on teams and minimizing risks inherent in traditional methods. In this presentation, we will explore some of the automated checks that can be done and discuss some of the benefits that this type of solution can provide.
