Designed and written by engineers, EMIS incorporates the professional methods and practices required to successfully manage today's complex engineering projects. Included are an extensive list of features to increase design productivity. It enables designers to use objects, created and stored in library databases, to design, visualize, manage and operate various types of large engineering projects. EMIS 3D can be used to model all sorts of objects. EMIS is not a CAD drafting system.
Data driven graphics rather than graphics driven data is how information is managed.
EMIS is multi discipline oriented. All aspects of a design can be modeled in the same system. Designers can see structural, mechanical and electrical components together in the same model. Project models and sub models can be managed in one database. Switching between foreground and background models as well as sharing with other designers is possible.
