Hi,
I need to create maps for someone by using CAD and placing line art with text for tag, species and height and a variable closed curve (bit like an elipse but as NSEW dims vary its a blob !) over a supplied .dwg map, by using an excel spreadsheet that has columns for
Eastings and Northings, for tree trunk centre
trunk diameter
Tag,
Tree species,
height
Canopy shape N S E W dimensions from tree centre,
Tree Category (each tree becomes one of 4 colours red green blue black)
I run Rhino3D V5 (V7 perhaps) so it needs to work in Rhino.
Another map uses the RPA Rad column for circles, again with data mentioned above skip the canopy data.
What software is there for this ?
Perhaps it has inbuilt CAD abilities and makes a 'populated with tree data dwg base map' all within its own prog, saving on needing CAD skills.
