Over the past week or so we have been Beta testing a new piece of software we found, helping the developers iron out some last minute bugs and suggesting extensions to make it even more useful.<\/p>\n
Many clients have little idea how time consuming and laborious it is converting CAD topographical surveys into meaningful 3D information to work with modelling programmes such as SketchUp.<\/p>\n
However, www.little-something.com could be an answer to lots of prayers! What once took two days now takes two minutes and all for just a few pounds!<\/p>\n
You simply upload you topographical survey as a dxf file and receive, almost instantly, a file to drop into Sketchup that creates your 3D Terrain model for you!<\/p>\n
Following our suggestion the developers have taken it a step further.<\/p>\n
It now also possible to take a grid of height data, exported for instance directly out of Promap (one of the market leading providers of OS Survey information in digital format)on a 5 x 5m grid, run it through the convertor and hey presto one instant 3D surface mesh…<\/p>\n
We signed up for a subscription almost immediately – this little piece of software is going to save everyone a whole heap of time. Perfect for feasibility studies, master planning, urban design, and details site modelling.<\/p>\n

Grab it now while you can – we expect the uptake of this to be huge!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
