There
is something new
happening in landform
design. It’s
the future. It’s
natural. Be a part
of it.
Carlson
Natural Regrade with
GeoFluv™ applies
fluvial geomorphic
principles to upland
landform design. This
unique Carlson 2009 module
helps you to create
a landscape design
that mimics the functions
of the natural landscape
that would naturally
evolve over time. The
result is a stable
hydrologic equilibrium
... naturally.

If fact, the U. S. Department of the Interior's Office of Surface Mining (OSM),
Reclamation and Enforcement
has identified Carlson Natural Regrade as a 'TIPS Core Software'. See this news release for full details. For more detailed information about Natural Regrade and GeoFluv, call or email Nicholas Bugosh, 970-631-4190 or nbugosh@carlsonsw.com.
NEW this year, in addition to Natural Regrade running on top of any AutoCAD® or Map® versions 2000, up to and including 2009, Natural Regrade also comes with built-in IntelliCAD® -- a robust, DWG-compatible CAD platform that every CAD developer can build upon) for no extra cost with every license of Carlson products.

The
essence of the
GeoFluv™ approach
is to identify
the type of drainage
network, i.e.,
stream channels
and valleys, which
would tend to form
over a long time
given the site’s
earth materials,
relief, and climate
to achieve a stable
landform, and to
design and build
that landform.
The resulting slopes
and stream channels
are stable because
they are in balance
with these conditions.
They are a reclamation
alternative to
uniform slopes
with terraces and
down-drains. Rather
than fight the
natural forces
that shape the
land, GeoFluv™ helps
the user create
a landscape that
harmonizes with
these forces.
