The Autodesk® Subscription Advantage Pack for AutoCAD® Civil 3D® 2010 is available!
This newly released Subscription Advantage Pack provides new functionality for importing and visualizing point clouds and designing roundabouts, and powerful enhancements that can help streamline existing workflows in AutoCAD® Civil 3D® 2010 software. With tons of cool new features, there’s bound to be something for everyone to leverage. Among the new features, you can find the following:
Point Clouds | Import and visualize large sets of point cloud data, such as 3D laser scanning/LiDAR data sets with millions of points, in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 with the Point Clouds feature. The point cloud feature enables you to: - Import LiDAR data in LAS format and all point file formats supported by AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010
- Visualize large point clouds in 3D
- Stylize point data based on LAS classifications, RGB, elevation, and intensity
- Filter point data by style
- Snap to points within the point cloud using standard AutoCAD® software tools
Some common uses of LiDAR data in AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010 may include using the point cloud data for site surveys, developing an understanding of the site context, and digitizing as-built features (for example, building footprints and curbs) for design projects. | Roundabout Layout | More quickly lay out roundabouts, including signage and striping, based on common design standards using the Roundabout Layout feature. Once the horizontal geometry of a roundabout has been defined, you can dynamically move and edit the roundabout throughout the optimization process. | General Enhancements | Transportation Design Tools | - Best-fit alignment creation tool
- Split (create subset) alignment
- Join profile tangents (extend tangents to point of vertical intersection [PVI] by grade intersection)
- Set PVI by elevation and grade
- Create spiral by sweep angle
- Import superelevation from Microsoft® Office Excel® files (XLS)
| Survey Tools | - Crossing breakline utility
- Survey import (TSS format support)
- Survey import (SRV format support)
- Survey change report
- Survey point and chain edit utility
| Visual Analysis Tools | - “Drive Along” visualization
- Line-of-site analysis
- Vertical distance analysis
| General Production Tools | - Save as DGN format
- Create surface from GIS data
- Zoom to point
- Calculate minimum vertical distance between surfaces
- Calculate minimum vertical distance between entities
- Divide/crop surface (create subset for use in other drawings)

Important changes to Autodesk upgrade/crossgrade policy
Autodesk is introducing a new upgrade pricing model that will go into effect on March 16, 2010. After that date, all upgrades, from any release level, will cost 50% of the price of a new license. This is a departure from the way upgrades have always been priced - which has been based on the "coming from" release level. For example, after March 15, customers upgrading from AutoCAD 2008, 2009 (or 2010) will all pay the same price: 1/2 the cost of a new license of AutoCAD. This policy change does not affect the Autodesk Legacy Program. For more information about this change in Autodesk’s upgrade/crossgrade policy please call us at (888) 768-7568 or email us at sales@microsolresources.com! Our team of Technical Specialists and Account executives stand ready to assist you in making the best decision for you and your firm. At Microsol Resources we want you to get the most out of your Autodesk software!
