AEC Terrain

AEC Terrain is a software utility that integrates with AutoCAD so that it can help you easily carry out tasks involving terrain management as well as 3D modeling.

The applicability of this piece of software connects it with a multitude of operations. Being able to integrate with any ERP system, the tool enables you to build drains, canals, level pads, foundation excavations, embarkments, bridge approaches, road formations, and whatnot.

Apart from that, users should be aware that the piece of software is able to generate coordinates for Cut and Fill elements so that the layout can be transferred to the ground.

Assigning tasks related to the output elements can be done by extracting Bill of Quantities / WBS, with the possibility of publishing the BOQ to AEC ERP for the successful management of schedules and budgets.

Calculating the volume of thickened surfaces can be done with the help of this tool, and the same applies to generating multiple TIN Surfaces by means of multiple point files. Besides, verifying the accuracy of engineering structures or extended excavations can be done as well, and creating ground surface, trimming boundaries, and introducing cut and fill slopes are tasks that can be completed using the component's set of features.

As for the output the AutoCAD component can generate, it should be pointed out that it can be packed as one of the following file formats: PDF, DWF, DXF, and DWF, which provides you with considerable freedom.
