Plot your GPS Points in TurboCAD

GPS2TurboCAD is GPS software that gives design professionals major cost savings in data collection by using recreational-grade GPS units to collect field information and plot it in TurboCAD, AutoCAD, or other CAD programs. Most recreational GPS units are well-suited for site layout and "topo-plotting" requirements that do not need great accuracy, and GPS2TurboCAD bridges the gap between these GPS units and CAD. GPS2TurboCAD lets you easily bring your GPS points into your CAD environment. At the click of a button, you can plot polylines, points, and blocks. Blocks and points can be plotted in 3D, for use in terrain modeling packages, and the blocks carry attributes showing all the point data.

Here's just a few of the major features:

Plots the waypoints in TurboCAD
Plots the points on free public domain Aerial Photos, Topographic maps, or Tiger
(Census) maps from TerraServer-USA
Converts points to State Plane Coordinate System
Performs a "Real Time" capture of points, plotting them in AutoCAD or into an Access
2000 Database
On-Line help system that always provides the latest information
DXF Export for use in other CAD programs
Imports files d from Garmin's MapSource and Magellan's MapSend
Imports points from text files through the Import Wizard

Uses Most Common GPS Units
Most GPS units from Garmin and Magellan are compatible with GPS2TurboCAD, and connect at the click of a button. In addition, GPS2TurboCAD will read files exported from Garmin's MapSource and Magellan's Mapsend. Point files from other GPS and post-processing programs can be read into GPS2TurboCAD through an extensive "Import Wizard". Compatible GPS Units (PDF)

Recovers Free Maps and Aerial Photos from TerraServer-USA

A popular feature of GPS2TurboCAD is the ability to view the imported points on free publicdomain aerial photos or topographic maps from Terraserver-usa. This lets the user doublecheck the data, and add new points as necessary. The maps are obtained automatically when the user clicks the "View Points" button, and then displayed in a separate window with the map, points and id clearly plotted. With one more click, the maps are sent into TurboCAD at the proper size and location for drafting!

Provides Datum Translation
GPS2TurboCAD translates the GPS into more than 40 world wide coordinate systems, including the extremely popular NAD 27, NAD 83, and the State Plane Coordinate systems (used in the United States). For a complete list of supported datums, click here (PDF)
