Description
The programs of the Civil Suite are mostly comparable to civil/survey programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map, Civil 3d, Eagle Point, TerraModel, GeoPak and InRoads. However, some features of Carlson Civil also match up well to construction estimating software such as Paydirt, Quest and Agtek.
Carlson Survey includes features that are comparable to the survey and GIS components of programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map, Civil 3d, Eagle Point, TerraModel, GeoPak and InRoads.
Carlson Civil is comparable to civil design programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map, Civil 3d, Eagle Point, TerraModel, GeoPak and InRoads. Some features of Carlson Civil also match up well to construction estimating software such as Paydirt, Quest and Agtek.
Carlson Hydrology has full hydrology and hydraulic design capabilities but is also tightly integrated with HydroCAD. The features in Carlson Hydrology are comparable to the structure and pipe utility design features in programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, Civil 3d, Hydraflow, Eagle Point and TerraModel.
Carlson GIS is comparable to other GIS mapping programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map and Civil 3d. Carlson GIS also includes many commands for inserting and converting geo-referenced images from outside sources such as Esri, Google Earth and MrSID.
Carlson CADnet can be purchased as a standalone module or as part of the Takeoff Suite which also includes Construction, GeoTech and Trench. It can run standalone with the included license of IntelliCAD or on top of a separately purchased license of full AutoCAD.
Carlson CADnet allows users to import faster images and PDF files and, if needed, even to merge multiple images into one file that can be digitized or otherwise converted by CAD software using a variety of raster-to-vector routines. CADnet also gives you many tools to help clean up text and linework generated from raster images.
Recent updates to CADnet gives you the ability to export drawing entities to 3D PDF files, import Sketchup files and import and export BIM models (doors, windows, walls, roofs, etc.) and bring them into CAD as CAD software entities; plus, CADnet includes a routine to export surfaces into BIM.
Carlson CADnet and other programs of the Takeoff Suite includes features that are most comparable to construction estimating software such as Paydirt, Quest and Agtek. However, the program also contains much of the same general functionality of the civil design components of programs such as: DCA/Softdesk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map, Civil 3d, Raster Design, Eagle Point, TerraModel, GeoPak and InRoads.
Point Cloud Basic is designed to work within a CAD environment to manipulate and extract data from a point cloud.
It has a very large capacity (up to a billion points) and is a great program for performing a “virtual survey” directly in a cloud. It allows the creation of Carlson points and 3D polylines utilizing a typical Carlson Field to Finish code table (FLD file) and draws entities directly into an open CAD drawing with no additional export function.
A notable feature is Survey by Grid which sets points at any specified grid spacing.
