Setting the Course for High-Quality Design
Leading the way in the delivery of field to finish, AutoCAD®
Civil software provides a comprehensive solution for civil
engineering projects.
Whether you work on land development,
transportation, or environmental projects,
AutoCAD Civil software is the right choice
for your organization, providing integrated
surveying, design, and documentation tools.
Not Just Faster: Higher Quality
Reduce the time it takes for survey tasks,
design, and documentation creation,
and implement changes easily and more
accurately so you can realize improved
results faster.
On Schedule and on Budget
Work in a familiar AutoCAD
with tools and processes you already know.
With design and drafting that remain
synchronized in AutoCAD Civil, the entire
team can work from the same up-to-date
project data, so everyone stays better
coordinated throughout all project phases,
helping to avoid costly errors or omissions.

environment
AutoCAD Civil software, the better AutoCAD
software for civil engineering design and
construction documentation, helps civil
engineering technicians, drafters, and surveyors
complete projects faster. Boost productivity and
help streamline time-consuming design tasks.
Deliver more consistent and better coordinated
construction documentation with design and
drafting that stays synchronized. Accelerate learning
in a familiar AutoCAD environment.
Import Survey Data
Easily convert and process proprietary raw survey
data directly into AutoCAD Civil. Automate line
work for planimetric or topographic creation—with
or without field book file formatting—using the
AutoCAD Civil field-to-finish process.
Points
Harness and manage the power of points by using
description keys, styles, and point groups. Points can
be imported multiple ways, providing the flexibility to
work with various data sources. As data is imported,
users can automatically populate point groups with
simple or sophisticated querying methods.
Coordinate System Transformations
Drawing transformations used to be timeconsuming and error-prone. Using AutoCAD Civil,
surveyors can quickly convert local northings and
eastings to defined coordinate systems from around
the world. Use sea-level scale factors and grid-scale
factors to quickly transform local coordinates to
projected coordinate systems.
Traverse and Least Squares Adjustments
AutoCAD Civil provides surveyors with tools and
settings to simplify traverse adjustments. You
can choose the type of error to analyze and which
adjustment method to use by selecting the Crandall
rule, compass rule, transit rule, or least squares.
Surveyors can also perform a traverse analysis using
both horizontal and vertical adjustment methods.
Easily view traverse information using graphical
on-screen displays or in field book notation style
for easier editing.
Map Check
More quickly evaluate errors and omissions within
legal descriptions or platted labels using the
interactive map check function.
Parcel Layout
Generate parcels by converting existing AutoCAD
polylines or by using flexible layout tools to
automatically size parcels based on frontage
oset, minimum width, and minimum and
maximum depths. Use the intelligent topology to
manage parcels so that a change to one parcel is
automatically reflected in neighboring parcels.
Coordinate Systems
Work with more than , real-world coordinate
systems to more accurately georeference your
AutoCAD Civil design data.
