Carlson CADnet

Allows users to create CAD from non-CAD documents such as PDFs, raster images, and paper plans, generate CAD text from raster images, and to import or export BIM models into CAD. Carlson CADNet can be purchased as a standalone module or as part of the Survey Suite or  Takeoff Suite which also includes Construction, GeoTech and Trench. It can run standalone with the included license of IntelliCAD or on top of a separately purchased license of full AutoCAD. Carlson CADNet and other programs of the Takeoff Suite includes features that are most comparable to construction estimating software such as Pay dirt, Quest and Agtek. However, the program also contains much of the same general functionality of the civil design components of programs such as: DCA/Soft desk/Land Desktop, AutoCAD Map, Civil 3d, Raster Design, Eagle Point, TerraModel, GeoPak and InRoads.
