UCLID Software Announces Special Offer on IcoMap 3 for AutoCAD

Jump to Website Here
Introductory Pricing Aimed at Professional Surveyors

(Madison, WI) October 17, 2001 - For a limited time, UCLID Software is offering the AutoCAD 2000 plug-in version of its award-winning cadastral mapping software at nearly half the usual price. From now through December 31, 2001--or until the first 500 licenses are sold--IcoMap® 3 for AutoCAD will be available for only $500, a savings of nearly 50% off the standard base price of $999 for a single-user license.

"Professional land surveyors and others who require accurate parcel maps, yet are sensitive to the cost of new software, now have the opportunity to experience the benefits of point-and-click, digital vector mapping," said Joe Hanousek, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "IcoMap was invented by a Wisconsin land surveyor, and surveyors immediately understand its value when they see it," Hanousek noted. "With this special introductory offer, we hope to place this product in the price range of even the smallest surveying companies, many of whom are long-time AutoCAD users."

IcoMap 3 for AutoCAD is a full-featured, parcel mapping toolkit that supports land records conversion via three methods: heads-up digitizing, COGO and its own patented Text-to-Vector® conversion process. Text-to-Vector, also known as Mathematical Content Recognition (MCR®), is a unique method of converting scanned or ASCII text into accurate vector lines and curves. After the user selects the text to be recognized, IcoMap automatically highlights the mathematical information in the form of bearings, distances and curve data. The user simply clicks on each piece of data to draw out an annotated parcel map.

Surveyors appreciate IcoMap's automatic parcel closure feature, which closes parcels according to set tolerance levels without altering the original linework layer. Surveyors may also choose to generate a closure report, which displays northing, easting and total closure errors for each course and calculates the parcel's area and perimeter, total closure error and closure error ratio.

Since its release in 1999, IcoMap has won several awards for its design, including the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) New Product Award for 2001, and the 2001 TitleTech Discovery Award for the best new software application for the title insurance and settlement services industry.

IcoMap may be purchased in both single-user (node-locked) and floating license configurations. A single "floating" license allows the application to be installed on multiple systems but only one user may run the program at a time. For a limited time, IcoMap 3 for AutoCAD is available in the "floating" license configuration for $650.

All IcoMap products come with 30 days of free technical support. Additional support options for IcoMap 3 for AutoCAD include $50 for a 30-minute "getting started" call with technical product specialists and $150 for a year of technical support, maintenance and upgrades. IcoMap 3 for AutoCAD requires AutoCAD 2000 or 2000i or AutoCAD Map 2000 or 2000i.

About UCLID: Based in Madison, WI, UCLID Software develops conversion and mapping software that transforms scanned legal descriptions, maps and other land records into survey-accurate digital maps. For screen shots or more information contact Amy Janczy at (608) 664-0570 or amy@uclid.com
