Professional Surveyor Magazine Moving from Land Desktop to AutoCAD Civil 3D Software Review

June 17, 2013 in AutoCAD Civil 3D, Business, Carlson, Geomatics, Land Surveying, News, Product Reviews, Surveying Software

June CoverLast month’s Professional Surveyor Magazine included a Software Review: My Evolution from Land Desktop to Carlson Software by Jennifer DiBona, aka That CAD Girl. This was the first of a two-part series of articles explaining how and why two AutoCAD Land Desktop experts decided to move either to Carlson Software or AutoCAD Civil 3D.

This month’s Professional Surveyor Magazine includes the second part, written by me, entitled: Moving from Land Desktop to AutoCAD Civil 3D.

You can read my article in Professional Surveyor Magazine here:
