Autodesk AutoCAD

Description

Autodesk AutoCAD is a computer-aided design (CAD) application used for creating technical drawings. It can be integrated with the cloud and mobile devices to allow for easy sharing and accessibility.

It can be used to create 2D or 3D technical drawings for vehicles, parts, buildings, and other items. The program is loaded with numerous features. One of the main features of the program is the layer-editing, this aspect allows you to edit models on separate layers. Live maps allows you to integrate your model with real-world environments. You can also import scanned images from the real world using the reality capture tool. These features can be used to simulate your creation in the real-world.

AutoCAD's user interface features many palettes, including tool sets and layers. AutoCAD saves drawings as a proprietary format ( .DWG) but can export to many different formats, including PDF and BMP. AutoCAD offers useful collaboration tools that can be used in team environments. It allows you to share your work through the cloud in AutoCAD 360 and is accessible on iOS and Android mobile devices.

Autodesk AutoCAD is an impressive design application. Whether you're an engineer, architect, or project manager, you'll find many features that will make your technical drawings more proficient. And even with the hefty price tag, the application will prove itself worth it.
