Our mission and objectives
Our mission
CARIBCAD (Cooperative Approach to the Realization of Internet Based CAD)
is a research project with the goal of developing a system of using CAD
(Computer Aided Design) on the Internet.
Our objectives
The general objective of the project is to develop methods, protocols and
tools for the out sourcing of CAD workloads from engineering companies
in Europe to specialized companies in developing countries. This will be
done by:
-
creating a well trained team in Europe and the Caribbean in order to achieve
comparative levels in research
-
setting research parameters on protocol development, data sharing, work
flow management and quality control over the Internet
-
realizing cooperative solutions in key target areas
-
archiving the existing building stocks in Europe
-
managing the urban environment through efficient GIS applications around
the world
-
smoothing the peak loads in the CAD workload of European engineering enterprises,
with an emphasis on labour intensive CAD work in detailing and client presentations
-
disseminating the results (through this Web site)
