Two modules at launch, priced per seat per year, with every update and email support included. Order by 31 March 2027 for the special launch price. Build your quote below.
StrataSwift Draft
The base for every seat: CAD drafting, point clouds, imagery, surfaces and road surveys. A floating licence, not locked to a PC.
- CAD drafting with levels, cells and snaps
- Point cloud import, viewing and sections
- Orthos and online imagery as backdrops
- Topo points, TINs, breaklines and contours
- TMH11 road surveys and cross sections
- Open DWG and DGN, export DXF, DGN v7, GeoTIFF and LAS/LAZ
StrataSwift Air Add-on
Everything to process aerial LiDAR and photos, from drones or aircraft, into a clean, classified point cloud, surfaces and orthos for your client. Add it to as many Draft seats as you need.
- Flight checks, trajectories and line matching
- Fit to surveyed control
- Cut overlap and classification routines
- Terrain models from classified ground
- Photo alignment and orthomosaics
- Distributed network processing workers
Seats
How many people can use StrataSwift at the same time. Floating, so a seat follows whoever opens the app.
Seats with Air
How many people can use the Air tools at the same time, up to your Draft seats. Air seats float too, so anyone can use one. The multi-seat discount applies to Air as well.
Network processing workers
R 14 500 per worker per year, with Air (normally R 18 000). Distributed network processing for classification, terrain models and other heavy jobs, so big projects finish sooner.
Floating licence
Not locked to a PC. A seat follows whoever opens StrataSwift, and you can run several copies at once on one PC.
Periodic licence check
StrataSwift needs an internet connection now and then to check the licence. Your point clouds stay on your PC. Remote desktop works too: each remote session uses its own seat.
Flexible payment options
Order in your customer account and pay online by card or by EFT. We email a tax invoice, and you can invite as many staff as you like.
What Draft and Air each do
Draft is on every seat. Air adds aerial processing to the seats that need it.
| Feature | Draft | Draft + Air |
|---|---|---|
| Drawing and CAD | ||
| CAD draftingLines, shapes, text, cells and hatching on levels, with snaps and Top, 3D and section views. | ✓ | ✓ |
| DWG, DGN and DXFOpen DWG drawings of any version and DGN of every version, V7 to V8 and later, with their levels and cells. Save as DXF or DGN v7. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Coordinate systems and geoidsLocal and national systems with geoid models built in, nothing extra to install. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Point clouds and imagery | ||
| Open the whole job as one cloudLoad LAS and LAZ of any size and zoom from the full extent to street level, with no tiling to set up. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Sections and measuringCut profiles and cross sections through the cloud and measure in 3D. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Orthos and online imageryUse GeoTIFF and other orthos, or online imagery and map data, as a backdrop. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Surveys and surfaces | ||
| Topo pointsImport survey points and codes and draw from them. | ✓ | ✓ |
| TINs, breaklines and contoursBuild surfaces from survey points and breaklines and draw minor and major contours. | ✓ | ✓ |
| TMH11 road surveysRoad survey layouts, cross sections and the deliverables that go with them. | ✓ | ✓ |
| Aerial processing | ||
| Load a flight and check itBring in clouds, trajectories and photos from drones or aircraft and check coverage, density and gaps first. | — | ✓ |
| Match the flight linesCorrect scanner mounting angles and heights so overlapping lines agree. | — | ✓ |
| Fit to surveyed controlTie the cloud to ground control and report what remains, with check points kept apart. | — | ✓ |
| Cut overlap and classifyRemove noise and sort points into ground, buildings, vegetation, wires and more, with routines you can save and rerun. | — | ✓ |
| Terrain from classified groundTurn the ground class into terrain models, contours and breaklines for your Draft drawings. | — | ✓ |
| Photos and orthomosaicsAlign the flight photos, colour the cloud from them and make a georeferenced orthomosaic. | — | ✓ |
| Network processing workersSplit classification and terrain jobs into blocks and run them on other computers at once. Sold per worker. | — | ✓ |
