About RoadEng Forest Engineer
RoadEng Forest Engineer is a forest road and terrain design platform used for planning, optimizing, and analyzing resource‑road networks. It supports road alignment, earthwork modeling, hydrology and crossing design, and cable‑harvest planning, all within an interface built for both office and field use. The software integrates LiDAR, GPS, and terrain data to help forestry engineers reduce construction costs, improve access planning, and design environmentally responsible routes.
The suite also includes Softree Optimal, an AI‑powered optimization tool that automatically evaluates multiple alignment alternatives and identifies the lowest‑cost, most feasible road options. RoadEng with Softree Optimal helps users quickly compare scenarios, minimize earthwork, and make better decisions earlier in the planning process.

Softree Optimal
Softree Optimal is an add‑on to RoadEng that reduces construction costs by optimizing both vertical and horizontal alignments. Its patented engine evaluates millions of design possibilities to deliver the lowest‑cost, standards‑compliant road design—often cutting vertical construction costs by 10–30% and achieving even greater savings when horizontal optimization is included.
With the addition of Path Explorer AI, the system now goes beyond alignment refinement to automatically discover entirely new corridor alternatives. It analyzes terrain, constraints, and cost factors to generate and rank multiple feasible routes, giving engineers rapid early‑stage insight and a stronger foundation for detailed optimization.
