LAKE MARY, Fla., Sept. 21, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- FARO®
(NASDAQ: FARO), the world's most trusted source for 3D measurement
and imaging solutions for factory metrology, product design, public
safety forensics, construction BIM/CIM and 3D solutions and
services applications, announces the release of FARO® Zone 2D, a
completely new diagramming software for law enforcement, fire
service, and insurance professionals.
FARO Zone 2D is the next generation diagramming software for
professionals who wish to quickly create accurate 2D diagrams
without the complexity of traditional CAD programs. FARO Zone 2D
features a new, intuitive command interface using "Work-Flow
Ribbons"™ that allow users to quickly create diagrams
for state crash reports, crime scene diagrams, pre-incident plans,
and fire-protection plans. Besides providing a user-friendly
interface, the software maintains a comprehensive feature set,
backwards compatibility with previous 2D diagramming software from
CAD Zone and ARAS 360, and compatibility with other popular CAD
software applications.
"While FARO is the leader in providing 3D measurement
technology, we also recognize how important it is for many of our
public safety forensics customers to create accurate, 2D diagrams,"
stated Joe Arezone, FARO's Chief
Commercial Officer. "FARO Zone 2D is the ideal software application
for those who want to recreate scenes from manual measurements,
total station data, aerial photographs, and orthographic
projections of point cloud data."
Mr. Arezone added, "We are confident that new and existing FARO
software users will view FARO Zone 2D as the future of public
safety diagramming software. We have paid close attention to the
work-flows that our customers use and, through the use of work-flow
command ribbons, made it easier than ever to quickly create
diagrams with the detail and the formats needed for public safety
applications."
Large public safety agencies and reporting companies are
encouraged to contact FARO to learn how FARO Zone 2D can be
seamlessly integrated into their standard electronic crash reports
and incident reports. Diagrams can be saved to several standard
image formats for integration into reports. Many parameters can be
defined by the system administrator to control how diagrams are
saved by FARO Zone 2D and integrated into the agency's standard
reports.
