Autodesk Map 3D
Autodesk Map 3D software provides practical mapping functionality to engineers and geospatial
professionals who need an open, flexible way to integrate CAD and geographic information system (“GIS”) data
throughout their organization. It contains the complete AutoCAD toolset to enhance productivity, and also offers
specialized functionality for map cleanup, geospatial analysis, and access to GIS data sources.
Autodesk Land Desktop
Autodesk Land Desktop provides powerful productivity and drafting tools for planning professionals to
create parcel and land plans from large data sets. Based on the AutoCAD software and built around a centralized
product structure that stores critical data points, Autodesk Land Desktop facilitates sharing plans with colleagues
and customers.
Building Solutions Division
The Building Solutions Division accounted for 13% of Design Solutions Segment revenues in fiscal 2006.
The division’s solutions range from the most advanced technology for building information modeling (“BIM”) —
a new paradigm for building design, documentation and construction — to the most widely adopted discipline-
specific drawing solutions. Supporting information and management needs throughout the building lifecycle,
Autodesk building industry solutions enable customers to eliminate inefficiencies in building design,
construction and management. The division’s principal product offerings include:
Autodesk Architectural Desktop
Designed for architects and built on the familiar AutoCAD platform, Autodesk Architectural Desktop
software supports existing 2D design practices while enabling users to gradually introduce increasingly powerful
industry-specific features to save time and improve coordination. It offers flexibility in implementation,
the efficiency of real-world building objects and AutoCAD-based design and documentation productivity
for architects.
Autodesk Revit Building and Autodesk AutoCAD Revit Series
Purpose-built for BIM, Autodesk Revit Building and Autodesk AutoCAD Revit Series software collects
information about the building project and coordinates this information across all other representations of the
project so that every drawing sheet, 2D and 3D view and schedule is based on internally consistent, coordinated
information from the same underlying building database. Autodesk Revit Building and Autodesk AutoCAD Revit
Series software provides architects, design-build teams and other building industry professionals a complete
architectural design and documentation system that works the way they think.
Autodesk Building Systems
Autodesk Building Systems software provides AutoCAD-based design and construction documentation for
mechanical/electrical/plumbing (MEP) engineers, designers and drafters. It increases productivity, accuracy, and
coordination by maximizing the efficiency of AutoCAD-based engineering workflows, while minimizing
coordination errors within the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering design team as well as with
architects and structural engineers.
Media and Entertainment Segment
The principal product offerings from the Media and Entertainment Segment are described below:
Autodesk 3ds Max and Autodesk Maya
Autodesk 3ds Max software and Autodesk Maya software are comprehensive professional 3D modeling,
animation and rendering applications providing advanced tools for character animation, feature film and game
development, design visualization andvisual effects production. Animators, designers, film and game developers
