Snow, wind and seismic load maps for the whole world.
Load Maps
Structural engineers used to look up climate load values in national standards. Now they find them on a map, anywhere in the world.
Challenge: Dlubal Software builds structural analysis software. Engineers needed the snow, wind and seismic zone for every building site - and every country defines them in a different standard.
Solution: We processed the standard maps of many countries into a single GIS database and built an interactive map that returns the right values for any address. The data is also available via an API that Dlubal sells as a service.
Outcome: Engineers around the world use Geo-Zone Tool in the browser and via the API. It is a long-term collaboration and we keep extending the database.
