With these above parametric objects, there is a database of information to be applied for detailing, construction estimating, procurement, future maintenance requirements, etc. One can take superior informed design decisions at initial phase of the project through coordination and clash detection of utilities and drainage (both existing & proposed), trees root zones, levels, attenuation tanks, retaining walls, building interface. The details are much easier to build in Revit with the application of detail components. Details are generally prepared by the drafting views and function like CAD Drawings. Areas are scheduled and computed without any difficulties which save huge time as well as probable errors. Sections and schedules are created directly from the model. Revit comprises of smart object and auto scheduling features which can be applied for creating Landscape Plans easily. One can acquire terrain information from Google Earth and integrate inside a revit model by importing the terrain into SketchUp and exporting it to. A fundamental Toposurface is generally formed with either positioning spot levels yourself otherwise by importing 3D terrain data from another drawing. Revit comes with a Toposurface tool that can be used to generate a 3D terrain model. Revit empowers the users to efficiently allocate a phase to an object and then sort out the views by phase. There are several projects which involve numerous phases of building/site construction. Revit can be utilized to produce phased drawings. One can get rid of providing numerous drawings and continuously sending This would save the need to have multiple drawings, and to be constantly sending restructured plans from side to side. With the advancement of the project, the Central Model will be converted into a complete model. So a landscape architect will be able to model exterior design components like topography and vegetation whereas the architect will be on the building. The most striking factor of Revit is that it's Central Model' facilitates various project stakeholders to perform with diversified elements of the model and at the same time gathering all the information under one central model.

Revit can provide the following benefits to a landscape architect:.
