Maps can be visualized as Aerial (terrain), Road or mixed.  
  • Incremental Save. It updates only those portions of an already-saved drawing file that you've changed, improving the Save time. 
  • TABLE and TABLEDIT. AutoCAD like Text in-place editing, numeric Rows and alphabetical Columns. New contextual Ribbons for Tables.
