We haven't forgotten users of basic AutoCAD or verticals such as ADT. In this environment you are doing the same operations with customizable point blocks.
Easy Installation: The install program can add all this functionality in a single pulldown menu that is automatically inserted into your current profile. Add MapWorks functionality to third party software and even custom menus without problems.
 |  | Auto Draw: | Automatically connects field points with 2D or 3D linework and symbols. Generates 2DPoly, 2DPolyFit, 3DPoly, or Spline objects as controlled by the user for each code. • Supports Description Sequential or AASHTO SDMS Figure Code methods. • Works straight from point objects in the drawing or an external point database file. • Handles curve codes to form arc segments on 2DPolys or automatically graded segmented 3DPolys. • Establish reusable definition files for different projects or clients. • 2DPolyFit and Spline objects are very appropriate for landscape edging, etc. |

 | | Traverse: | Allows typed entry of raw traverse data and importing from multiple formats. User configurable editor allows quick and easy entry of traverses in angle right, azimuth, deflection, or bearing & distance. Imports raw data files in the following formats. Define loops and calculate closure. • DotSoft Raw Data (*.drd) • AASHTO SDMS Project (*.prj) • Autodesk Fieldbook (*.fbk) • Tripod Data Systems (*.rw5) |
| | | Add: |  | Single: | Add single points based on known or picked coordinates. Easily add random points on AutoCAD geometry with acquired elevation or select a pre-defined surface. |  | Radial: | Add multiple points at a specified distance around a point. |  | Offsets on Line: | Add multiple points that are offsets of a line defined by two points. |  | On Grid: | Add multiple points evenly spaced on a rectangular grid. |  | On Intersections: | Add multiple points at the intersections of linear geometry. | | | On Line: | Add multiple points (with interpolated elevation) between two points. |  | On Objects: | Add multiple points on the vertices of AutoCAD objects. |  | Difference: | Calculates & places points with calculated elevation difference between point and a surface. This tool requires LDT or C3D. | |
| | | Convert: |  | Blocks: | Converts blocks in the current drawing to application points. |  | LDT Points: | Converts LDT Points in the current drawing to application points. |  | Text: | Converts plain text files with comma, space or other delimiters to application points. | |
| | | Display: | | | Rotate at Node: | Rotates selected points at their insertion point. | | | Zoom All: | Zooms the display to show all points. |  | Zoom To: | Zooms to a specified point with controllable scale factor. | |
| | | Edit: |  | Average: | Averages selected points with analysis allowing creation of average point. |  | Delete Dups: | Deletes duplicates points based on same or close coordinates. |  | Spreadsheet: | Allows changes to point data in a spreadsheet grid. | |
| | | File: |  | Combine: | Combines multiple point files into a single target file. |  | Compare: | Compares two point files with detailed comparison report. |  | Convert Multiple: | Converts multiple point files to a designated target format. |  | Convert Text: | Converts a single text file (space, comma, tab delimited) to defined format. |  | View/Print: | Quickly view point files with details as file is clicked. | |
| | | Inquiry: |  | Compare: | Detailed comparison of designated points to those within search radius. |  | Inverse: | Inverses between points with distance, delta and slope details. | |
 | | Import: | Imports points from multiple point databases into the current drawing. |
 | | Export: | Exports designated points to supported file formats. |
| | | Formats: | | Load Formats | | Save Formats | • AGT ProCogo File (*.cgo) • AASHTO SDMS Calculated File (*.cal) • Autodesk Land Desktop (*.mdb) • Autodesk Uploadable File (*.auf) • C&G Survey Coordinates (*.crd) • Carlson Survey/SurvCADD (*.crd) • LandXML Industry Consortium (*.xml) • Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets (*.xls) • Simplicity Point File (*.zak) • TDS (Tripod Data Systems) (*.cr5) | | • Autodesk Uploadable File (*.auf) • ASCII Text File (*.txt) • Carlson Survey/SurvCADD (*.crd) • LandXML Industry Consortium (*.xml) • Microsoft Excel Spreadsheets (*.xls) • TDS (Tripod Data Systems) (*.cr5) |
