What is the difference between tcpMDT Standard and tcpMDT Professional?

Updated on tcpMDT Leer en español

The differences between the TcpMDT versions are detailed below:

Standard Version Features

  • It focuses mainly on field data management and digital terrain modeling.

  • It allows the import and editing of survey points, facilitating their classification by levels and the application of custom symbology.

  • It is capable of generating surfaces via triangulation (TIN) and creating contour lines with labeling and smoothing tools.

  • It facilitates the generation of simple profiles and cross-sections, as well as the drawing of 3D meshes.

  • It offers the possibility to determine basic volumes by mesh difference or through parcel analysis.

  • It includes support for interoperability with GIS systems, allowing the import and export of files in formats such as SHP, GML, and KML.

Professional Version (PRO) Features

  • It is designed for complex civil engineering and road design projects, incorporating all the functions of the Standard version.

  • It allows the dynamic design of alignments, working with axes composed of straight lines, curves, and clothoids.

  • It manages segments, which unify all the technical information of the road in a single file, including axis, vertical profile, superelevations, and typical section.

  • It features advanced tools for the definition of constructive typical sections, allowing you to configure pavement layers with their materials, ditches, and variable slopes.

  • It generates the proposed terrain and produces detailed earthwork takeoff reports by sections.

  • It includes an exclusive module for the design and calculation of utility networks (sewage, stormwater, and water supply).

  • It provides tools for the analysis and calculation of the mass diagram.

  • It is essential for the BIM environment, allowing the assignment of custom properties and performing information exchange workflows under the IFC standard.

When should I choose tcpMDT Standard?

tcpMDT Standard is enough for surveying work: terrain models, contour lines, profiles and volumes. If the project needs advanced alignment design (horizontal and vertical alignments), complex templates (ditches, pavements), water supply, sewer and stormwater networks, advanced earthwork options, virtual routes or advanced integration in BIM workflows, the right choice is tcpMDT Professional.
