Carlson CADNet empowers users to create CAD drawings from non-CAD sources. Import PDF files, BIM models via IFC, and raster images, converting them into vector CAD entities. Digitize paper plans or on-screen images to generate points, polylines, areas, contours, profiles, sections, and end-areas efficiently.
Modify raster images using cut, copy, remove speckles, or thicken commands, and extract text directly from images. Full digitizing routines allow precise creation of CAD geometry with trace functions and raster snaps. Built on AutoCAD and IntelliCAD, CADNet integrates with Carlson GeoTech, Trench, and Construction for complete project workflows.
Streamline site estimating and design prep while maintaining compatibility with industry-standard formats, LandXML, and other data conversions. CADNet enhances productivity, accuracy, and flexibility in transitioning BIM, raster, and paper data into actionable CAD models.
