Survey

Survey provides productivity tools focused on surveyors and mapping professionals. Survey provides tools to label and modify labels of lines and curves with bearings, distances, deltas, radii, tangents, etc. It offers tools to place and label points, create closure reports, and write legal descriptions from polylines or parcels, as well as tools for planview layout. PConnect is an optional addition to Survey.

Key Features:

• SmartDraft’s dynamic labels to increased productivity when using AutoCAD Civil 3D and BricsCAD Pro design objects.
• Supports BricsCAD Pro v24 Civil Points for reading, processing, and creating.
• Convert SmartDraft block points to BricsCAD Pro v24 Civil points.
• Supports Civil 3D and BricsCAD Pro surfaces, and alignments.
• Elevation, slope, contour, extract contours, and point labels.
• Line / Arc labeling, with support via XRef, polylines, Civil 3D alignments, pipe networks, pressure pipes, and parcel segments.
• Legal description from a polyline or Civil 3D parcel.
• Closure, area, inverse, legal description reports from Civil 3D or SmartDraft parcels.
• Parcel user define parcel types.
• Define parcel from closed areas and a number tag.
• Label polyline elevation as contours. Supports Civil 3D and BricsCAD surfaces, and other objects with z value.
• Define SmartDraft alignments, profiles, and Profile Grids.
• Inquiry tools: To display survey formatted bearing, distances, deltas, radii, tangents, etc. from lines, arcs, polylines, within Xrefs, and Civil 3D and BricsCAD objects.
