Infrakit has recently launched version 3.9.2 of OFFICE, which brings with it a range of groundbreaking features that will revolutionize the way construction projects are managed and executed.
Let's take a closer look at the key updates in this release.
🔊 DEM volumes from drone flights
One of the most requested features is now here: simple volume calculation from drone-generated digital terrain models (DEM). Users can now simply drag and drop a .TIF file of their DEM/DTM directly into Infrakit OFFICE. This makes it incredibly easy for foremen, site managers, and bidding teams to calculate accurate volumes. This feature will save time and increase precision in project planning and monitoring.
🙇🏼 BIM integration takes a big step forward
The handling of IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files has received a significant upgrade. IFC models can now be viewed in 2D, and most importantly - they now include properties. This is a breakthrough in making BIM practically applicable on construction sites. Project teams can now easily access detailed information about building elements directly in the field, improving communication and reducing errors.
🦬 ISO 19650 compliance with file history
To support compliance with the ISO 19650 standard, Infrakit has implemented a history log on the file page. This provides full traceability and version control, which is crucial for meeting the requirements of this international standard for information management in construction projects.

The new heatmap visualization for machine localization provides project managers with a powerful tool to analyze machine activity and efficiency. This makes it possible to identify areas of high activity, optimize machine use, and improve overall project efficiency.
🚾 Custom icons on the map
Are you creating site plans in paint?
Users can now create custom icons directly on the map in Infrakit OFFICE. This opens up endless use cases, especially in site planning. Project teams can visualize and plan the placement of equipment, materials, and facilities with greater precision and flexibility than ever before.
📸 Improved mass transport with images
Mass transport lists have received a significant upgrade by including images from dumpers and trucks. This provides visual confirmation of the transport and loads, improving documentation and control in the mass movement process.
🤷🏼 Conclusion
Infrakit OFFICE 3.9.2 represents a significant leap forward in digital construction management. With these new features, the tool becomes even more indispensable for modern construction projects. From improved BIM integration to advanced volume calculation and ISO 19650 compliance, this update covers a wide range of critical needs in the industry.
For those who want to explore all the details of the new version, full documentation is available on the Infrakit support page.
