1. The method for identifying alternative paths for projects, comprising:
- providing a client-based application having a GUI that presents a plurality of constraints that relate to a project;
a server-based application for calculating the costs of a plurality of potential paths for presenting a subset of paths with associated cost data; and
determining an optimized path for at least one of a road, a railway, and an infrastructure that enables movement of vehicles.

37. A method of land valuation, comprising:
-
selecting a path;
defining a land area of the path;
determining an alternative path that avoids the land area;
comparing the cost of the original path to the cost of the alternative path to determine the change in cost resulting from the alternative path; and
calculating a path-relative value for the land area.
