SANDS

Halcrow hold annual user group meetings for those people wishing to learn more about SANDS and meet other users who also benefit from using it.

Previous SANDS user group meetings have taken the form of presentations and discussions relating to new developments, improvements, case studies and future plans. User feedback is essential in the development of SANDS many of the ideas raised at the user group meetings have been incoporated into the software.
