The libraries of vehicles available for swept path simulation and analysis was limited and vehicle simulations could only be carried out in a forward direction. In 1992, AutoTURN 2.0 was released and was the first released version of AutoTURN compatible with Bentley Systems MicroStation Unix.AutoTURN is used to analyze road and site design projects including intersections, roundabouts, bus terminals, loading bays, parking lots or any on/off-street assignments involving vehicle access checks, clearances, and swept path maneuvers. In the 25 years since the software was released, it has improved to reflect the needs of engineers and designers in the transportation sector. The first version of AutoTURN was released for use on Autodesk’s AutoCAD Release 9. AutoTURN was designed as the practical application of a University of Calgary civil engineering graduate studies thesis by Milton Carrasco. AutoTURN was originally developed for Transoft Solutions Inc.Among a number of things, it analyses and simulates swept path vehicle maneuvers. A web based version of the software, AutoTURN Online is available on macOS and Windows operating systems through a browser integration in Vectorworks. AutoTURN software is made for use on computers that run Microsoft Windows operating system and is available as a 2D or 3D (Pro) version. Bentley Systems MicroStation / Autodesk AutoCAD / Bricsys BricsCADĪutoTURN is a third-party CAD software released for the AutoCAD, MicroStation, BricsCAD, IntelliCAD (ZwCAD) platforms, developed and sold by Transoft Solutions Inc.
