MapInfo is software that has been popularized on a regular basis as a competitive alternative to the ESRI dominance. Much has been written about this tool, I want to dedicate this post to a review on its trend than on its capacity, which according to 2008 Daratech study appears in seventh place in terms of sales in 2008 and sixth ...

I spoke recently about what means in statistics to talk about software, specifically 11 programs which represents 50% of the visitors coming by keyword visits. It is difficult to give recommendations of which software is better, because it depends on the context (and the money) conditions, the more I can aspire is to write and give my impressions; to enable ...

Dgn format has been very stable, many GIS / CAD programs recognize it but edit it natively has always been a privilege to Microstation although only it had been three variations of the format: GISD, V7 and V8. In the DWG format case, Microstation has managed to open and edit it natively, like all programs born under the IntelliCAD line. ...

It has already reached the new issue of AUGI World, with very interesting content, such as working with SketchUp, first steps with .NET and some with Revit. It has drawn my attention a kind of analogy made by Mark Kiker, regarding a destination choice suited to the election of a CAD tool. Although its orientation is more to design a ...

More than two years writing about technology issues crazy, usually software and applications. Today I want to take to make an analysis of what it means to speak of software in the hope of forming an opinion, to highlight strengths and how they respond to income and words as Internet traffic generation. Software entries that involve it visits that involve ...

I recommend taking a moment to learn about this blog, which is now coming to a year of operation. I am referring to ConstrucGeek, the six minutes you’re expecting to devote reading a new egeomate you should invest in this blog. There are only two possibilities: that you realize CAD issues associated with engineering isn’t your interest, or that you ...

Don’t believe that I’m taking photos at the Capitol; I just hope that United Airlines services will be opened to Houston, all to make use of cheap flights from midnight. It’s funny that just today, two years ago I wrote my first post on egeomates. Even more curious is that this trip would not have existed if I did not ...

I’ll be by Houston attending training and at the same time I’ll be resting from this world’s pressures whose kml format seems to lose its simplicity. The month brings much appreciated birthdays, first it will be two years of hardly geosmoking, and so it goes … this month will goes on travelling I recommend 3 blogs that surely will have ...

The selection of attributes is a way to filter objects according to special criteria; both Microstation and AutoCAD do it similar although one of the two programs has some extra features in the case of this tool. I am using for this example AutoCAD 2009 and Microstation V8i. With AutoCAD This is activated with the qselect command, or with the ...

TRANSLATION NOTES: Please read some comments at the end of this post Today I had a story that has left me with nostalgia, of seeing a technology company that after not withstand the crisis that involves life sustain has been bought by another, after 5 years of effort. The difficult thing is that sooner or later happens to people for ...

There is always something that tools of big companies don’t do very well, on this small ones take advantage to develop solutions that meet clients’ needs, generally themselves were clients. If it is a good business or not, the model is interesting, often go to the annual conferences ...

TRANSLATION NOTES: Please read some comments at the end of this post. My life has been a collection of small moments that as running scripts end up every sequence all over 35, according to the simple count of the shell in use. At this time, like any man I had had passions by some facets of life, egeomates is just ...

TRANSLATION NOTES: Please read some comments at the end of this post. I get a request from a friend in the land of the ‘patepluma’ (*) who is working on a road, apparently he has Land Desktop so we’ll go a little different because what I have is Civil 3D 2008, but who cares. Just for nostalgia, this was much ...

Let’s assume we have a text that we want to place on arc line. It works almost as Corel Draw, I’m using AutoCAD 2009, although the command is older than Almeida with his crazy things but I will bring it after seeing several queries in the forums and Yahoo Answers. 1. Arctext Command It is the same known as ArcAlignedText ...

This week I’ll be on tour again. I leave you 10 readings while return … oh, and a recommendation. About technologies Hugo Chavez is afraid of the mouse Centromujer, it’s born a great blog for women.

Long ago, this was done with Softdesk, it was another story, but in this case we will see how to do it using AutoDesk Civil 3D in six steps. 1. Surface Styles The styles are viewing geometry settings that are created in AutoCAD, where are defined the type of lines, colors, layers, smoothing curves or different conformations that the geometries ...

I feel it’s a very good advertising of BitCAD, from IntelliCAD, which incidentally is a low cost alternative to AutoCAD as I told you a while back when we did a more extensive review of this program. It gives a good lesson to the marketing department of Manifold he he. And as they seem cool for me, I will advertise ...
