LISCAD Product Information

What is Leica LISCAD?

Leica LISCAD is a surveying and engineering software package. It allows data from virtually any surveying instrument to be imported and turned into finished plans. Leica LISCAD makes the process from data to plans so simple you will wonder how you managed without it.

Collecting data may seem the hardest job, but without the right software the data can become a mess. Leica LISCAD allows you to get on with the job straight away.

For convenience, LISCAD is available in modular form so you only need the software necessary to fulfil your daily tasks. LISCAD is available in English (UK), English (US), Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Russian and Spanish.

• Lite - Just for starters. LISCAD Lite is an abbreviated version for data reduction, plus import / export of other systems, including DXF and DGN.
  
  
  
• Computations has a virtually unlimited sized database featuring full connectivity for features, layers, codes and attributes. Full COGO functions, editing for multiple object types, including lines, splines arcs and spirals, plus support for text are all included.
  
  
• Input/Output for transferring data to and from other systems, plus support for over 40 different total stations and GPS systems. Import and export a variety of exchange files including DXF, DGN and ARC/INFO.
  
  
• Modelling validates and computes digital terrain models, segments breaklines and generates contour maps, complete with user defined labels.
  
  
• Volumes calculates quantities to a base datum, or between surfaces. A new model of height differences can be generated.
  
  
• 3D Visualisation allows easy navigation around the model with walk, fly, orbit, zoom and pan cameras. The 3D model appearance may be realistically enhanced and edited with colour, textures and image draping.
  
  
• Profiles - Powerful and flexible section generation, Point and line editing, and area volumes and comprehensive export to other CAD systems.
  
  
• Engineering Design the powerful condition based design system can easily generate design elements for building structures like dams and multi-lane highways.
  
  
• Background Images, allows the import of aerial photographs, satellite images and maps, which can be georeferenced. This allows for the correlation of images to your vector geometry, as well as on-screen digitizing.
  
  
• Adjustment calculates a rigorous least squares adjustment for your field data.
  
  
• Transformations will transform a coordinate set between projections, plus perform an affine, semi-affine or full 3D conformal transformation.
  
  
• Resource Editor is the ultimate in personalised software. Edit existing symbols, line styles and fonts or create your own libraries.
  
  
• LISCAD CAD is the Windows(TM) CAD package designed for Field to Finish productivity.
