Latest Leica CloudWorx For AutoCAD Improved

By DE Editors

With new productivity enhancements and expanded licensing options, Leica (Norcross, GA; leica-geosystems.us) CloudWorx 3.3 for AutoCAD is now available. Cloudworx is software for visualization of 3D point cloud data created by 3D laser scanning directly within AutoCAD.

The latest release incorporates a number of new features that specifically benefit plant designers, including a new flange point selection tool to enable the definition of critical “tie-in” points, and an enhanced point cloud density display control that speeds up working with large and dense point cloud data sets. 

There is also a new point cloud clash management functionality that “allows plant designers to readily find clashes between existing ‘as-built’ conditions and the new piping, equipment, and structural designs inside their Plant CAD application,” according to Bill Wallace, senior software product manager for Leica Geosystems HDS LLC.

Leica CloudWorx 3.3 for AutoCAD is available with new licensing options so that organizations can more easily deploy laser scanning across their enterprise.

A similar version is planned to support Bentley MicroStation applications and users. For more info, visit leica-geosystems.us.
