AutoCAD® is a powerful drafting tool employed by many in the civil engineering field, but it has its limitations. Civil 3D® is a civil engineering design software package built on top of AutoCAD, but utilizing Civil 3D to its full potential can be a daunting task. Nobody said you must use all of it, though. Start small: crawl, walk, run.&nbsp;In this Webinar, we will explore a few simple activities that are difficult or impossible in AutoCAD, but can be accomplished with just a few simple clicks using Civil 3D.<ul><li>Maps and imagery using real coordinates</li><li>Utilizing GIS Data in your drawings</li><li>Importing Survey Points</li><li>Offset Alignments, Widenings, and Turn Lanes</li><li>Contours from Infraworks and Point Clouds</li><li>Profiles &#8211; Existing Ground and Design</li></ul>
