From individual site surveys to billion-point aerial LiDAR datasets and full highway corridor projects. Choose the edition that fits your workflow.
Start at the tier that matches your work, then add LiDAR (Spatial) or drone photogrammetry (Aero) when your projects need it. Every edition shares the same CAD engine and project format — upgrading never means migrating.
For project managers, field coordinators and drafting teams who work with drawings and field data — without needing terrain or point-cloud tools. View opens and saves DWG/DXF and AutoTerra projects; LT adds survey import, blocks, annotation and full CAD editing.
For survey and mapping consultants producing terrain deliverables. AutoTerra adds instant DTM, precision contours and the 3D terrain view; Spatial adds LiDAR point-cloud processing; Aero adds drone photogrammetry on top of Spatial.
For infrastructure teams running cross-sections, volumes, hydrology and corridor work. Pro Spatial adds the full LiDAR engine with AI & ML Intelligence; Pro Aero adds drone capture in the same seat. AutoRoads extends the same platform into highway and corridor design.
All editions include the core CAD environment, DWG/DXF exchange and online map integration.
