Notable improvements in MicroSurvey CAD 2021 include:

IntelliCAD 10

Merge your past CUI to the current program with CUI migration tools. Display surfaces and modeled objects in new visual styles and materials with new lighting methods. Greater stability with a wider range of graphics cards and improved visual quality. Modify your projects more easily with dynamic input and selection cycling.

Shapefile Export & Attribute Table

Export your projects to shapefile for easy submission to your GIS department or governing agency. Automatic division of data into appropriate shapefiles means that you can export any selection of data, or your entire project, in a couple easy steps. The new shapefile export supports GIS, DBX, FieldGenius, and CAD data simultaneously. Use the new Attribute Table Export function to quickly export a selection of points and attributes to a .csv file for review.

Auto Add Points to Objects

“Convert” an entire project from Civil 3D to a MicroSurvey project by adding points to all objects, while maintaining correct point IDs and descriptions! Use the Auto Add Points to Objects function (AUTOP) to extract the point ID, description, and location of Civil 3D COGO points to create matching MicroSurvey points.

Simple Point Cloud Import

Import .las, .e57, and .pts files directly into MicroSurvey CAD, rather than setting up databases in Cyclone or Jetstream when paired with an active license of Leica Cyclone Publisher or Leica Jetstream Publisher.

Full details are available in the MicroSurvey CAD 2021 Release Notes.
