Divide polygons into equal width stripes

Splits a polygon or closed polyline into a specified number of equidistant stripes (equal width bands) aligned with a chosen direction. Each stripe has the same width measured perpendicular to the stripe direction (areas may differ if the shape is... more


Convert polyline type

Quickly switch polylines between 2D and 3D formats directly in your drawing environment with ease and flexibility. The tool maintains accuracy and consistency throughout the process, intelligently retaining essential properties such as layer or color of the original polylines whenever... more


Add elevation data to existing points in DWG/DXF

Spatial Manager has utilities for working with terrains and elevations. One of them lets you search elevations for existing points. By following a few steps, it is possible to create a data field and store the elevation value in it,... more


Export elevation labels in feet in Google Earth

Google Earth internally uses meters for elevation units, which can be an obstacle when feet are required. This tutorial explains an easy workaround for viewing contour elevation values in Google Earth and displaying them in feet. Available for AutoCAD, BricsCAD,... more


Adjust geometries to a base map

Rubber sheeting refers to a method in mapping and surveying where a map or spatial data is adjusted or “stretched” to align with a reference map or coordinate system. This process helps to fix distortions caused by differences in scale,... more
