What's New?
Enhanced Project Management Tools
You may already know that Calc Zone Pro is so much more than just a calculation program. With the newly enhanced project management tools, controlling your project has never been easier or more efficient. Scan, cut, copy, paste virtually any electronic document, text, image, pdf, diagram or screen capture directly into Calc Zone Pro. The notes section in each equation or formula has no limitations, so you can add anything you desire in any part of your project.
Because Calc Zone Pro is a fully functional project management tool, you can create sections for each subject or topic in your report or analysis. Each group or section can be moved up or down in the project tree or added to another existing group or section at any time.
Project Merging
Several people can work on the same project and merge the separate projects together for a complete report. One person may be working on the scene data, processing diagrams and describing the evidence at the office while another Reconstructionist is completing the calculations to determine speed, time and distance, yet another investigator is working on a photo log. Easily combine the files with a simple copy/paste of the project items from one project to the other. Once the information has been pasted into Calc Zone Pro, you control the order and placement to make your report complete.
Enhanced Backup Protection
Your time is valuable and is why Calc Zone Pro has a smart backup system that protects your work in the event of a MS Windows software crash. Anything you have saved in your project is automatically backed up and is recalled upon restarting the program.
Updated and Enhanced Research Center
The latest NHTSA databases are included at no additional charge. This is not a separate module; it is built directly into the program so you don’t need to be online to conduct your research. In addition, we give you all four of the NHTSA research databases.
New Equation
Critical Speed Yaw with Track Width Adjustment.
Templates
If you find yourself struggling to maintain your files, asking what is next, just to make sure all of your information is accessible, then templates will be of great value.
Calc Zone Pro lets your create your own templates so your cases are consistent. With templates, you can setup a guideline to the way your team creates their reports. Although each case is different, there are standard procedures for putting together a crash reconstruction report. We use the templates not only to maintain consistency in our reporting, but they are also filled with instructions and procedural guidelines.
Templates are helpful to Reconstructionists of all levels of expertise, but especially to someone new to the field.
Not only can you create your own unique template, you can also share your templates online with others. Editing your existing templates is easy. Creating instructional templates for your entire team to use will save you significant time in the future.
Forms
Calc Zone Pro has several forms built in so you can manage basic information about the crash such as, accident location, date and time. You can also include information about the vehicles, drivers and occupants just as you would on a police report. There is no limit to the number of forms you can add. You can also add Notes, Opinions and Conclusions to any section or to the report as a whole.
Simply click on any one of the forms to get started. Just like any formula, the forms can be saved to the project and edited, moved or renamed at any time.
Advanced Search
Search Almost Anything within Calc Zone Pro. With the new advanced search features, you can customize your search to almost every part and section of Calc Zone Pro.

Vehicle Specifications and Research
Significant improvements to the vehicle specifications and research database have been made. You can immediately add your vehicle specifications to your project with one click and with just one more click you access all four of the NHTSA research databases automatically. Once your search is complete you can add the entire search to the project with just one click. Each section can be added separately as well, plus we have added the ability to conduct detailed filtering so you can search for specific issues such as braking or steering. Since each search may be unique, we give you the ability to add that specific search result to the project, which will save you lots of time sorting through the results.
Calc Zone Pro Optimization and Bug Fixes
Calc Zone Pro has been tweaked to allow you to create very large reports, including the attachment of files and links to other important information about your case. Although we make every effort to avoid bugs, we do find them from time to time and thank each of you for your input and corrections.
Reporting Optimized
Calc Zone Pro has new enhanced reporting features and settings that allow you to control everything about your report. Including but not limited to the order of items printed, header and footer images, page numbers, header and footer text and settings that allow you to turn off the report heading icons.
