LandCAD^® Introduction

LandCad^® is a professional Landsurveying CAD-system, designed and produced in Denmark by the company Toft-Nielsen A/S, by a staff of professional landsurveyors and engineers, familiar with landsurveying praxis in the field. The company is founded in 1987.

LandCad^® is used worldwide in surveying companies, engineer- and contractor companies, state institutions, municipalities, energy companies, schools and universities, in all landsurvey tasks, and as an intelligent, value-adding connection between GPS-equipment/totalstations at one hand, and Geographichal Information Systems at the other hand.

LandCad^® is handling all types of userfriendly graphical landsurveying, all types of 2D- and 3D-transformation, circle-circle-calculation, line-line-calculation, wireregistration, volumecalculation, cut/fill calculation, 3D-visualization, GIS with database-connection, WMS/WFS-internet-maps and professional plotting, from A4- to A0-oversize-format.

LandCad^® can handle UTM-coordinatesystem and local coordinatesystems with and without deformation.

LandCad^® can communicate with all types of GPS-equipment and totalstations, and is fully 3D.

LandCad^® can 2-way-translate data between a lot of CAD/GIS-dataformats :

• AutoCAD DWG and DXF with headerinformation, blocks etc.
• MicroStation - DGN with cell-libraries
• MapInfo TAB, MIF (mapdata) and MID (database-information)
• ESRI Shape (mapdata) and dBase (database-information)
• XML format
• Land-XML-format (points, lines, objects, 3D-models)
• 3D-Terrainmodel-formats for Machine Control for Excavators (e.g. Scanlaser VisualDigger, Leica, Trimble)
• Character-separated textfiles of any format, with advanced possibilities
• Direct translation between e.g. AutoCAD DWG and ESRI Shape
