The Civil 3D for Surveyors course is for surveyors and survey technicians that do not necessarily need all of the functionality that is taught in the CV101: Civil 3D Fundamentals course. This course equips the surveyor with the basic knowledge required to use Civil 3D efficiently in a typical daily workflow. You will learn how to import converted field equipment survey data into a standardized environment in Civil 3D and to use the automation tools to create an Existing Conditions Plan.
