In 1984 the engineers who established the Vianova Civil Engineering Network started integrating CAD and advanced mathematic engineering algorithms to make highway design more efficient and flexible.

The algorithms and methods had been used widely in Norway since late 60’s, but this was the first time they where integrated with a graphical CAD engine, and this was the start of the first of the today’s more than 20 Civil Design modules in Novapoint. The aim was to let the users have a complete, professional but at the same efficient and easy to use design software. We also wanted to give our users a flexible solution, and at the same time the ability to share data through all disciplines and lifecycles. This is still our philosophy. Thanks to more than 4000 enthusiastic users of 12 000 licenses in 20 countries, we continue to develop integrated, professional, easy to use Civil Engineering tools...
