Autodesk Vehicle Tracking
Course Overview
1-Day Training: $400 offered from 9am to 5pm
This intensive 1-Day instructor-led live online training program provides comprehensive coverage of Autodesk’s Vehicle Tracking tools for validating vehicle accessibility in design projects. Geared towards civil engineers and transportation planners, the curriculum dives deep into vehicle swept path analysis, simulation settings, and reporting workflows.
Taught by expert instructors from CAD Masters, you’ll gain extensive hands-on experience using the Vehicle Tracking functionality to validate vehicle swept paths, turning radii, slope transitions, and vertical clearances. Through live demonstrations and project-based exercises, you’ll learn essential workflows for:
- Vehicle Swept Path Analysis
- Vehicle Tracking Settings
- Roundabout and Junction Modeling
- Parking Lot Design and Reporting
- Custom Vehicle Creation
- And More
Added Benefits:
- On-Demand Videos
- Digital and/or Printed Training Books
- Lifetime Access to Course Materials
- 90 Days Technical Support
- Certificate of Completion

Topics Covered
Vehicle Swept Path Analysis
Simulate the paths and turning movements of different vehicle types on your site designs. Visualize the swept area envelopes required for vehicles to safely navigate roads, parking lots, loading zones, and other facilities.
Vehicle Tracking Settings
Learn to configure drawing and system settings specific to the Vehicle Tracking module. Customize options like vehicle libraries, display modes, clearance parameters, and analysis rules.
Roundabout and Junction Modeling
Design efficient roundabouts and intersection layouts by modeling vehicle swept paths through these specialized road geometries. Test multi-lane vehicle movements.
Parking Lot Design and Reporting
Ensure your parking facilities accommodate appropriate vehicle types by running parking analysis simulations. Generate detailed reports with parking stall calculations.
Custom Vehicle Creation
Go beyond the standard vehicle libraries by creating your own custom vehicle parameters to match specialized equipment requirements for your projects.
And More Advanced Topics
From setting object detection modes to visualization of slope and tilt analysis, dive deeper into AutoCAD's site vehicle tracking toolset.
