For the purpose of this discussion, a large project includes one or more of the following data sets:
- A surface with more than a million points
- A subdivision with more than 200 lots
- A corridor longer than 15 km (9.3 miles)
If your projects use smaller data sets, you can still benefit from the advice in this document to improve your work processes and your computer system performance. Implementing some of these recommendations will also enable your team to take on larger projects if the opportunity arises.
