Leica fieldPro 2.1 Includes CloudWorx Interface for AutoCAD
 HEERBRUGG,
Switzerland, June 13, 2008 – The relaunched Version 2.1 of Leica fieldPro
features several improvements of well-known functionalities and a new
interface between CADWorx fieldPipe and Leica CloudWorx for AutoCAD.
CADWorx fieldPipe for Leica fieldPro application interfaces with Leica
Total Stations to as-built plant and piping components to create full scale
specification-driven 3D models in real-time, on-site, and without any
post-processing back in the office – saving valuable time and money. Now in
fieldPro v2.1, the CADWorx fieldPipe for Leica fieldPro option as well as
the fieldPipe standalone option have been enhanced with multiple additions,
such as Pipe Orthogonization. Additionally the CADWorx fieldPipe for Leica
fieldPro now interfaces to point cloud data via Leica CloudWorx Pro for
AutoCAD. Creating CADWorx intelligent 3D pipe models and extracting
isometric drawings now is easier than ever before.
 Intelligent
Handling of Point Clouds Leica CloudWorx for AutoCAD is a software
application that allows users to take advantage of rich, 3D point clouds
directly within AutoCAD, and users can work efficiently with large point
clouds directly using AutoCAD tools and commands. The CloudWorx application
adds simple tools for viewing and working with slices of point cloud data to
speed up the 2D drawing creation in Leica fieldPro. Powerful modeling tools
enable as-built piping models and other 3D constructions to be created from
point cloud data in the AutoCAD environment and can be easily imported into
Leica fieldPro via the new interface.
Furthermore, the Dimension Control option, which allows for flange
alignment and bolt orientation accurate measurements and analysis has been
enhanced with Leica fieldPro 2.1. Users now have the choice to measure
on-board TPS and post-process alignments in AutoCAD later. This
post-processing also applies to Pipe Centerlines 3D connection with
statistics and tolerance setting.
Leica fieldPro - measure once, model on site, deliver efficiently Leica
fieldPro is a mobile CAD software, the on-site and on-demand field solution
to “as-built” in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) as well as
Surveying. Accurate 2D/3D “as-built” documentation has never been easier. In
combination with Leica Geosystems sensors, all information is captured in
real-time on-site in its final deliverable CAD format, and no
post-processing back in the office is required anymore. When the user leaves
the site, the full scope of work is done. Leica fieldPro is a plug-in for
AutoCAD® and Autodesk products such as Civil 3D, Land Desktop, Map 3D,
Architecture, Mechanical Desktop, and many more.
