AutoCAD Civil software provides civil engineering technicians, drafters, and surveyors with a focused design and documentation solution for transportation, land development, and environmental projects. It works seamlessly with AutoCAD® Civil 3D® software, so as design changes are made, they are automatically reflected in the model to help keep the entire team coordinated.
