The project was realized in the context of the assignment to Siteco by the Temporary Association of Companies including Systra SA, Systra-Sotecni SpA, Architecna Engineering Srl, STUDIO MATTIOLI Srl, AEGIS Srl and CANTERELLI & PARTNERS LEONARDO Srl., and the University of Messina.
The planned railway route will develop for about 15 kilometers with two terminus stations: the first northeast of the city near FICO Eataly World, the well-known Italian agricultural-food park of the national farming tradition, and the second one, northwest, in the Borgo Panigale area, beyond the Ducati Motor Holding SpA headquarters. The tram route also includes stops in the historical center.
The collected data were then processed with the Road-SIT Survey plugin in the AutoCAD environment. This allowed displaying the point clouds on the imagery, carrying out the feature extraction and adding the required measurements quickly and efficiently. All objects can also be displayed in 3D format (sidewalks, walls, poles, etc.), thus enabling a realistic and comprehensive overview. The survey covered sidewalks, road sections for disabled people, buildings and fences, public lighting poles, electric poles, and traffic lights.
