InSite Elevation Pro Features
Built-in CAD Viewer
The built-in CAD viewer in InSite Elevation allows the import of existing and proposed grades and other site features on even the most significant projects. It also supports the latest generation of CAD files. As a result, there’s no need to invest in a costly CAD program as long as you’re using InSite software.
3D Graphics
InSite Elevation Pro provides detailed hard 3D graphic evidence of all site work calculations, which increases confidence for more accurate and tighter bidding.
Open and Align Multiple Files
Elevation Pro opens and aligns multiple files of different types and scales such as vector files (PDF, DWG, DXF, etc.), image files (PDF, TIF, etc.), or data imported from a data collector. Takeoff data from any sources overlays all other sources, preventing missed items and double calculations.
Detailed Reports
InSite Elevation Pro offers a complete set of easy to understand earthwork reports that can be exported to spreadsheets, PDF files and most bid applications. Reports can be exported to PDF, HTML (web), XLS (Excel), RTF (Word, etc.) and other file formats and can be personalized with a watermark to add a professional appearance. Printing or exporting the report to PDF will include the watermark.
Value Engineering
New site designs can be contoured to validate changes with Elevation Pro’s Dynamic Site Balancer. Easily adjust site grades to achieve an acceptable balance, or adjust either an entire site or individual areas. Communicate changes with managers, engineering and developers to keep your earthwork projects on running time.
Area, Length & Item Count
InSite Elevation Pro makes it easy to take-off curb lengths, water and sewer lengths, surface of paving and count traffic control signs. Export the results to spreadsheet and PDF.
Accurate Slope Area Calculation
Using Elevation Pro, users can access the plane area (top-down view) and the slope area (3D surface) calculations. Elevation Pro’s ability to provide precise slope area calculations allows estimators to confidently plan and allocate resources, minimizing wastage and maximizing efficiency. Elevation Pro’s versatility extends beyond pond liners and erosion control fabric. It’s also invaluable for calculating the face of retaining walls, preventing flawed estimations and compromised structural integrity.
Create GPS Machine Control
Once the bid is won, Elevation Pro gives you the tools to create GPS machine control models for CAT, Komatsu, Trimble, Topcon, Leica, etc., without needing a complex CAD program.
Improve Communication on the Job Site
KMZ files provide location-based data to Google Earth and other geo-browsers to anyone on your staff with a GPS-equipped smart device with no special app required. Clearly see cut & fill, delivery, stockpile locations, haul routes, building locations, and utilities.
Utility Takeoff
TrenchVision 3D™ quickly and accurately provides excavation and backfill quantities for sanitary and storm sewers, water, electrical and gas service, using the earthwork contours from your site takeoffs.

“Accurate and dependable, but PDF features could be improved”
Pros
Insite has always been a reliable solution for me, thanks to its precision and exact amounts. What makes it more appealing is that it can be used for the smallest and the most significant projects alike. The InSite team is always searching for ways to improve the product. It also has a stable cloud connection, which ditches the USB key requirement and enables working remotely.
Cons
Its annoying that PDF is supposed to be in a vector format for the PDF takeoff feature to work flawlessly. When it isnt, which is always the case, performing the takeoff is difficult and time-consuming.

“Life saver!”
Pros
InSite has been saving my life for quite a while. I use Insite to calculate the quantities of our earthwork, pipe excavation and backfill, finish grade, asphalt, concrete, and topsoil. And make sure the amounts are precise. For our field survey and GPS layout, I utilize Field General. I create my own TINS to manage our GPS system.
Cons
While working with this software for so many years, I have noticed that the reports may be a little bit more in-depth in some cases. But overall, everything seems fine.

“Insite is very helpful”
Pros
Most of my time is spent in the field so finding something that works this well was a joy to me. It is very accurate and my customer likes the 3D model.
Cons
You cannot basically scroll through a list of diagrams. You have to click on every one of them until you get to your desired one.
