Interesting to say the least. It started with the news that Hexagon PPM are the new owners of Bricscad. But my main interest of the day has been the new and improved tools that have been showcased I won't even attempt to describe them, I couldn't do it justice, but if you follow Bricscad keep an eye out in the next couple of days for the videos from the conference there are some truly impressive improvements to what in my mind is already a winning software package. It will be interesting to see what day 2 brings.

Yes, it's GIS; however AutoCAD is the platform used by another program. It is not inserted, it is scraped in and just LOOKS like it's AutoCAD, but it's not...it's all vertices and points and coordinates and lines. The two-layer system is interesting. One I brought up was to use a layer/single color for DESIGNED equipment, then change it to the "correct" layers/colors after the construction asbuilt for AS-BUILT equipment. This is really going outside of the way it has been done for probably decades, so I'm not sure how it will be received. Thank you for the suggestion!

Are you not putting all of the as built into a GIS system ? So your autocad DWG is a part that gets inserted, a simplistic view would be two layers items to be removed, items to be added.
