Converts raster lines and arcs into true mathematical AutoCAD primitives. Autodesk AutoCAD Raster Design 2010 ISO
Removes random pixels (noise) from scanned drawings. Bias: Eliminates stray lines or spots.
Recognize text within a scan and convert it into standard AutoCAD MText.
Legacy design projects often require a bridge between paper blueprints and modern digital workflows. Autodesk AutoCAD Raster Design 2010 was created to bridge this gap. This specialized vectorization software integrates directly into the AutoCAD environment. It allows engineers, architects, and GIS professionals to clean, edit, and convert scanned raster images into standard CAD vector entities. When combined with AutoCAD Map 3D, Raster Design
AutoCAD Raster Design 2010 is an essential "bridge" tool for professionals who need to bring legacy paper drawings, scanned maps, or aerial imagery into a modern digital CAD environment. It functions as a specialized add-on that installs directly on top of AutoCAD, providing a unique set of hybrid editing and vectorization tools. Core Capabilities The software is primarily designed for three main tasks: Image Cleanup : Advanced tools like (removing stray pixels from old scans), (straightening crooked scans), and (flipping images scanned the wrong way). Raster-to-Vector Conversion
Unlike standard AutoCAD, which treats scanned images (TIFF, JPG, BMP, GeoTIFF, CALS, NITF) as dumb pictures, Raster Design 2010 allows you to:
Convert raster lines into intelligent AutoCAD lines, polylines, and arcs. This link or copies made by others cannot be deleted
Microsoft Windows XP (SP2 or later) Professional or Home Edition
Cleaning up legacy municipal paper maps showing underground water, gas, or electrical lines, and converting them into georeferenced vector layers for GIS databases. Final Thoughts on Legacy Software
Whether you are an architect working with scanned blueprints or a GIS professional handling satellite imagery, AutoCAD Raster Design 2010 provides the essential toolset to turn "dumb" pixels into "smart" vector data. What is Autodesk AutoCAD Raster Design 2010?
