 About Us

Mapsoft is an Australian company that designs affordable survey CAD software. It was formed in 1994 and now boasts a large client base.

Its flagship product is miniCAD, which was named because it was the first survey CAD software in the world to run on a handheld computer - the DOS based HP100LX. Today miniCAD runs Windows PC's.

The software is designed and written by Ian Iredale, a practising surveyor with 30 years in the profession. The advantage to you is that all software is tested in-house on real survey jobs. This has led to claims from Mapsoft's client's, that it is the easiest CAD software they have ever used. We will let you be the judge of that, as a working demonstration version of our software is available here: Downloads.

The key benefits of working with software designed by Mapsoft are as follows:
