Understanding Layers and Modes

Podaris provides powerful tools for parametric modelling of infrastructure systems.

All drawing is done on a Layer, and every layer has a mode that defines its physical and operational characteristics. Different modes will generate different curve radii, right-of-way footprints, velocities and accelerations, etc.

Currently-available modes include:

Bus
Cycle path
Hyperloop
Metro
PRT (Personal Rapid Transit)
Rail
Tram

To represent different phases or scenarios within a project, layers can be hidden or made visible.
