Just in case you want to be first on your block… Autodesk didn’t give dates at our recent press gig and just yesterday I read on a GIS site that Map3D would appear in March. I’m pleased someone told Ralph Grabowski what’s going on.
The ones about which GISers might care should appear:
Friday, March 23
AutoCAD 2008
Thursday, April 5
AutoCAD Map 3D 2008
Monday, April 16
AutoCAD Civil 3D 2008
AutoCAD Land Desktop 2008
Tuesday, April 17
Design Review 2008
Friday, April 20
Raster Design 2008

This week’s podcast explores Trimble’s latest acquistion, new offerings from Autodesk’s Geospatial Division, World Wind 1.4, voice enabled navigation and spend some time on the implications on the new Google KML Search, news from 3GSM and the end of the search for Jim Gray. The podcast is 12 minutes (~ 4 Mb) and was recorded February 19, 2007.
Here are the show notes. What are show notes? Links to all the things we mention in the audio.

Well, first it’s free… but second, the 2008 version will support georeferencing. What means is that any Autodesk product that supports georeferencing (Map 3D, Civil, Land Desktop) can write out georeferenced DWF files. Those are then read into Design Review in those coordinates. There’s a bottom display of the cursor coordinates in the native system or Lat/Lon (dec degrees or DMS).
The user can then use the redlining tools to mark up the DWF, “plop down” a point at keyed in coordinates and do real time tracking on the DWF with an external GPS.
Autodesk has made DWF and Design Review geo-friendly! Thank you!
Disclosure: Autodesk covered travel, lodging, food for me to attend World Press Day. I also received corporate gifts.
