"GEOPAK is a comprehensive software package that covers every project phase from conceptualization to final quantities. The software works within the MicroStation graphic environment providing true interactive design. For example, a horizontal alignment can be created graphically, it can be calculated with the coordinate geometry component of GEOPAK or some interactive combination of the two. Dynamic on-screen design provides immediate interpretation of plan view geometrics for making design choices through visualization. Using GEOPAK will help ensure consistency and accuracy of design work and generate a significant time savings in the overall effort of producing construction plans. GEOPAK Road will be taught in two courses, GEOPAK I and GEOPAK II. GEOPAK I will focus on teaching how to use GEOPAK to accomplish COGO, Horizontal and Vertical alignments, Drafting, Digital Terrain Modeling, Original Cross Sections and Sheet Generation. The training code for GEOPAK I is DES730." --p.1
