- COGO – Streamlined inverse, traverse, sideshot, intersections, interpolation, translate, rotate, scale and align
- Coordinate Transformations – Transform coordinates and screen entities between lat/lon and grid projections as well as local to local by Helmert and least-squares methods
- Deeds – Enter deed by description, read deed data from deed file, deed reports, deed correlation and generate legal description from drawing
- Cut Sheets – Create custom cut sheet reports with reference grades and station-offsets
AREA/LAYOUT
- Label Areas – Customized area label styles and several methods to select areas to label

- Lot Manager – Lot definitions by point numbers with functions to create lots, conduct mapcheck for closure, edit in spreadsheet with graphics, report lots and draw lots
- Lot Layout – Size lots along alignment with controls for target area, setback and frontage
- Offsets, Intersection and Cul-de-Sacs – Layout for ROW and EOP linework
ANNOTATION
- Angle & Distance Labels – Flexible routines to label linework in all possible layout combinations plus available rules to automatically fix label overlaps and revise labels when entities move
