DAT/EM CAPTURE for AutoCAD collects 3D features directly from a stereoplotter into an AutoCAD drawing file. DAT/EM CAPTURE includes many mapping-specific tools and MAP/EDITOR™, which is a collection of useful automated editing tools. This powerful digitizing and editing combination saves valuable production time for your digital mapping projects.

DAT/EM CAPTURE for AutoCAD can be run with SUPER/IMPOSITION™, which is included with the SUMMIT EVOLUTION stereoplotter, and is sold separately for other compatible stereoplotter types. Features from the AutoCAD file are optically superimposed over the stereoplotter’s imagery for immediate feature verification.

Real-time panning and zooming
3D digitizing directly into AutoCAD
Ground Coordinate Display
Automated command string entry
Tools for contour labeling, spot elevations, stairs,building,squaring and more
