Survey CAD that behaves like the one you learned on.

A drafting canvas on your project's own grid, with the commands your fingers already know and a command line that actually runs them. Nothing to install, it opens in the browser, on the drawing your whole team sees.

The Backsight Draw workspace: ribbon, layers explorer, drawing canvas, command line and status bar

The commands, by name

LINE, CIRCLE, POLYGON, TEXT, MTEXT, leaders and dimensions; MOVE, COPY, ROTATE, SCALE, MIRROR, OFFSET, TRIM, EXTEND, FILLET, BREAK, JOIN, STRETCH and DIVIDE, each opens a panel that asks for exactly the distance, angle or interval it needs.

A command line, not a prop

Type L, C, PO or TX and the tool switches. Type E, U, Z or SAVE and it happens. Enter repeats the last command, and every command answers in words.

Snaps and drafting aids

Object snap to endpoints and edges, grid snap, visible grid and ortho constraint, separate toggles on the status bar, because they do genuinely different jobs.

Layers, blocks and linetypes

Layer colour, visibility and lock in the explorer; a survey symbol library placed as blocks with scale and rotation; dashed, gas, water and fence linetypes rendered on canvas and on the plot.

Annotation and plotting

Mtext, multileaders and dimensions styled in millimetres at plot scale, then printed to A1 sheet PDFs from templates with a live typography preview, what you see is what the sheet carries.

Interchange that round-trips

DXF in and out, curves come in as true arcs, never flattened to chords, and LandXML points and linework in. Backsight tells you what a format can carry, so nothing is lost quietly on the way through.
