Carlson Mining vs. JTS IntelliCAD vs. ViaCAD vs. VrLiDAR Comparison Chart

Carlson Software provides technically advanced mining software for design and efficient operation of mines throughout the world. Its machine control solutions enable companies to reduce idle time and increase production rates, which equal lowered costs and increased efficiency. Carlson Software is the largest provider of mine software for coal mines in the United States and, increasingly, around the globe. Carlson Mining modules run on top of AutoCAD® and come with an IntelliCAD® built-in. Use of Carlson machine control software—Carlson Grade, TruckPro, and Fleet Manager Office—has increased as mine management seeks to increase productivity, accurately track materials, and enhance safety on the site. While predominant in the U.S. coal mining industry, Carlson Mining applications, including Carlson Machine Control, go well beyond coal: to limestone, trona, clay, phosphate and all manner of sedimentary deposits. Routines for block modeling have been added.
