Surveying (or land surveying) software assists in the process of evaluating a 3D landscape to determine the angles and distances between a series of points. Measuring the positioning of these points is typically used to establish maps and boundaries for buildings and other subterranean civic projects.
Get Revit, AutoCAD, Civil 3D and more. One essential set of BIM tools for civil engineering, infrastructure and construction.
A new collaboration between Autodesk and Esri intends to put GIS and BIM at the centre of projects, driving smarter decisions, optimised designs, accelerated project approvals, reduced costs, smarter cities and resilient infrastructure. Building the bridge between GIS and BIM will change the way we plan, design and build our future.
