Synchro: 4D scheduling software for SketchUp

In terms of representation, the first dimension is characterized by a line. A square is two-dimensional, and an extruded square – a cube – is 3D. So what the heck is 4D? Time.

Synchro Project Constructor is a 4D application that lets you manage a 3D model in time. It's a scheduling tool for visualizing how construction phases will occur. Basically, different parts of your model exist at different points on a timeline, and you can show and hide those parts depending on when you are. Pretty neat.

Even neater is the fact that Synchro Project Constructor is specifically designed to work with SketchUp models. It's a lower-cost, standalone application that anyone with SketchUp can use to add a temporal dimension to their project planning and design.
