 Autodesk
Survey 2006 software streamlines and automates field
data collection, cost effectively closing the gap between
gathering data and incorporating it into drawings using
Autodesk Land Desktop. Interface with a broad
variety of industry-leading data collectors, survey
intruments, and GPS receivers, and then work with tools
and functionality in Autodesk Land Desktop to create
accurate drawings quickly. use field coding for
automatic linework and mapping. Use Survey to
share survey data with civil engineering, GIS, and land-planning
professionals. Autodesk Survey 2006 streamlines
all aspects of data collection by eliminating keystrokes,
saving time, and supporting the accuracy of field data.
Key New Features:
Latest
Platform
Built
for Autodesk Land Desktop 2006 which is built on AutoCAD
2006 and components of Autodesk Map 3D 2006.
Survey
Toolspace
Improve
performance to the Survey Toolspace. A setup item
window has been added to the Survey Toolspace, this
gives users a graphical view of all the points and figures
observed at the selected setup.
Command
Language
The
Survey command language now provides the ability to
define multiple points on a curve within an active figure.
Figures
Ability
to create 3D polylines from one or many existing survey
figures to a specified layer.
Exporting
Survey Figures to a Field Book
Export
figures to a field book file from either the Network
item or from the Figures collection.
Standard
Features:
Survey Instrument Communication
- TDS Survey link provides seamless communication between more than 60 industry-standard survey instruments and data collectors.
- New Trimble Link allows for interoperable communication between Trimble RTK total stations and conventional total stations from Trimble and from other manufacturers that utilize the Trimble
- Users can convert ASCII point data to and from other common survey instruments and software programs.
Data Input
- Users can input traverse and sideshot data in tabular form. Editors show information to users during input.
- Input method can be changed for an individual shot.
- Users can input raw field data directly from the command line.
- Tabular sideshot and traverse editors, which you can use to enter raw survey data quickly and easily
- Ability to replace the AutoCAD command prompt with Survey command line (COGO) input
- Survey Command line options, including input based on control points, traverse/sideshots, baseline, centerline, and intersections
- History file function, which tracks all data input of a project; file can be edited andimported
Field Book Input
- Raw field data can be entered directly into an ASCII file, and then analyzed and added to the project.
- Users can easily edit any data that has been incorrectly entered in the file.
Traverse Analysis
- To analyze and adjust traverse, users can employ industry-standard compass, Crandall, least-squares, and transit methodologies.
- Sideshot points in the drawing and database are automatically updated when changes are made to a traverse.
- Users can draft closure error ellipses, traverse topology routes, and more.
Figures
- Create figures based on common surveying methodology.
- Functions for selected figure include display area, inverse, map check, and move.
- Features include figure layer control, intelligent data, and TIN breakline usage.
- User-defined figure library that controls layers
- Figures based on various geometric input methods
- Analysis and reporting options, including Mapcheck, Inverse, Area/Perimeter
- Points created from figures automatically
Automated Drafting / Linework in the Field
- Much of the drafting process is automated:
- When using description keys and figure prefixes, the Import Field Book command automatically drafts points, symbols, and lines and curves all on the specific layers defined by the user.
- Figures can be used as breaklines in TIN creation.
Minimum System Requirements
- Windows ® NT 4.0 with SP 5.0 or later, Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition (ME), or Windows 2000
