Microsurvey inCAD Plugin For AutoCAD 2018
Transform AutoCAD® into a survey and design solution. If your office is using AutoCAD, MicroSurvey offers inCAD to bring the full features of MicroSurvey CAD into AutoCAD
MicroSurvey inCAD transforms AutoCAD® into a survey and design powerhouse while maintaining a fully integrated user interface within AutoCAD.
AutoCAD on its own is a powerful drafting program. But, Surveyors need tools to help them compute coordinates, balance traverses, annotate drawings, compute areas and the list goes on. Adding inCAD to your existing copy of AutoCAD is like switching from measuring with a chain to measuring with an EDM. After a few months you'll wonder how you ever worked without it!
The MicroSurvey inCAD Advantage
MicroSurvey has been building tools for surveyors for over twenty years. We know what you need to complete your tasks, calculations and drawings.
Our built-in MicroSurvey Assistant simplifies all tasks by speeding up common tasks and streamlining complex calculations and routines with icon driven, smart dialog boxes.
MicroSurvey inCAD has the power of Active Drawing Technology. The technology enables visual and fast verification and manipulation of data in the drawing, coordinate and traverse databases and during COGO calculations.
With MicroSurvey products there is complete field to finish integration. inCAD is compatible with data from all major total stations and data collectors. Data auto-synchronizes from MicroSurvey FieldGenius data collector software.
We understand that not everyone can attend a training seminar, so we include over five hours of built-in training movies. For existing customers, our movies will help you learn new routines where as for our new users, our movies will help overcome the learning curve introduced by learning new software.
MicroSurvey inCAD boosts your bottom line and saves you time by making AutoCAD a more efficient survey and engineering tool.
