Terra Excess

Terra Excess is a powerful CAD software designed for land surveying and civil engineering tasks that provides an intuitive user experience, making it accessible to people with no prior experience. This software makes it easy to generate contour lines, which can be used to produce topographic maps and plans. With Terra Excess, users can generate these contour lines from topographic survey data by selecting points with elevation values, creating a "Main surface," selecting the interval, and drawing the contours. Generated contours can be labeled and used as a base map for implementing various construction projects.

Terra Excess's volumetric survey data feature allows users to calculate accurate volumes for stockpiles, quarries, and earthworks. The software creates a triangulated irregular network (TIN) for the surfaces and computes the volumes by using prism volume calculations, providing the most precise method for estimating volumes. The accuracy of the volume estimates depends solely on the quality of the entered data.

Additionally, Terra Excess lets you view and edit survey points with ease. They can be scaled in size, and some properties can be hidden, such as number, elevation or description. Finally, the software allows users to export points and contour lines in the DXF file format to transfer data between various CAD software products.

Overall, Terra Excess provides a comprehensive and intuitive package for surveying and civil engineering tasks, making it a must-have tool for anyone working in the field.
