HDD Profile Designer & Route Map
The Map View and HDD Profile workspace is where a crossing takes shape: a plan-view map of the alignment overlaid with environmental, cadastral, and utility data layers, paired with a vertical cross-section that shows entry and exit angles, design radius, depth of cover, and soil stratigraphy along the bore.
It is the canvas the rest of the toolbox builds on — every calculation, crossing detection, and permit screen attaches to the alignment you draw here.
