Field Redline and Note Interpretation

Read field redlines and notes and structure them into proposed design changes for an engineer to approve.

What It Does

The agent reads the redlines and notes, drafts the proposed design changes with the reason for each, and links back to the source markup. An engineer approves before any edit is applied.Without it: Redlines and field notes arrive as unstructured markup. Turning them into design edits by hand is slow and easy to misread under deadline.

  • Checks each proposed change against the design standards library before drafting it
  • Illegible or contradictory markup is quoted back as a question, not guessed
  • Groups proposals by drawing sheet, so approval runs sheet by sheet
  • Proposals sit in the document store; nothing is written into the CAD file

Illustrative example

Sheet 12 of drawing set NB-2207 comes back with three redlines from the Tuesday crew: a pole moved 8 m south, a handhole added at the school entrance, and an arrow with the note 'per Dan'. The agent drafts the first two as changes, each with the standards clause it satisfies and a link to the marked-up scan, and returns the third quoted verbatim as an open question. The engineer approves the two and calls the crew about the third.
