Computer Aided Design (CAD) drafting services plays an important role in our daily life.CAD has many advantages over manual drafting. One big advantage is that once you've drawn something, you shouldn't have to draw it again. In manual drafting the output of CAD contains symbolic information such as materials, processes, dimensions etc. according to application-
AutoCAD one of the first CAD program to run on personal computers is the most popular tool for Architectural drawing and CAD productivity. AutoCAD is a CAD software application for 2D and 3D design and drafting.
CAD combined with Geographic Information System(GIS) enables data to be analysed geographically and this technique offer various services like CAD TO GIS conversion , GIS to CAD conversion, 2D to CAD conversion, Multilayer CAD conversion,Scan to CAD conversion,DGN conversion etc.Other CAD Services are CAD Drafting, paper to cad conversion , CAD Parcel Mapping , cadastral mapping services etc.CAD conversions using the AutoCAD software. Most of the conversions are done in this manner.
1. 2D CAD conversion: Converting the image into digital format (CAD)
2. Paper to CAD: Converting the Paper drawing to digital format(CAD)
3. AutoCAD conversion: CAD conversions using the AutoCAD software
4. Multilayer CAD conversion
5. Scan to CAD conversion: Scanned drawings can be converted to CAD drawings.
6. DGN conversion by using Micro Station software.
7. CAD to GIS: The converted CAD can be Geo-referenced
Paper To CAD Conversion
Paper to cad conversion is the process of taking paper documents and converting them to cad files. Autocad software is used to produce drawings in this conversion.In this technique, the paper drawings are converted into various CAD formats.The output file can be given in the form of dgn, dwg, shp, dxf format.
CAD Parcel Mapping
Parcel Mapping is one of the important service of GIS. Parcel mapping services are done and delivered in a digital format and they are stored in a database. Many number of information can be stored in the database. The process of CAD Parcel Mapping includes the following steps.
» Scanning of the paper map
» Identify ground control points
» Geo referencing of the scanned map
» Design of the database
» Digitization
» Quality Check
Outsourcing cad drafting services can help to make an office paperless and also help to save more designs than storing in papers.CAD has been a major driving force for research in computational geometry, computer graphics and discrete differential geometry. CAD Drafting provides accurate and precise measurement of the data we require. It actually involves designing actual or virtual images with the help of computers. Since Computer aided drafting service is a constructive solution it confess an organization to build a business solution with its own requirements.
