Understands 10,000+ PLSS corner descriptions.
Auto-BOB™
Implied basis of bearings.
DWG Export
For Civil 3D and Carlson.
CAD Bridge
One click cloud to CAD linework in the correct EPSG.

Review & Closure

From Description to Signed Deliverable

Legal-Plot connects the legal description, plotted boundary, and closure result in one traceable workflow. Review the geometry first, then produce a signed record with the supporting evidence still attached.

Parse and plot

Turn metes-and-bounds text into geolocated CAD and GIS linework while keeping the source calls available for review.

Check closure

Confirm the traverse closes and inspect any misclosure in feet before the saved plot is used as a deliverable.

Sign the report

Produce a digitally signed closure report saved with the plot, keeping the reviewed geometry and source evidence together.

CAD Integration Bridge

Drops Into Your Existing CAD Workflow

Legal-Plot outputs native DWG and DXF ready for AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Carlson — no re-projection, no manual placement. The free Bridge plugin lets you push the boundary directly into your active drawing.

AutoCAD
Insert DXF at 0,0 — linework arrives in SPCS position
Civil 3D
Import as parcel geometry or alignment linework
Carlson Survey
DXF import complements existing deed routine workflow
MicroStation
Compatible DXF geometry ready for sheet composition
QGIS
GeoJSON and KML for instant layer overlay
ArcGIS Pro
GeoJSON import or DXF via coordinate reference system
Global Mapper
KML and GeoJSON load natively with no setup
Any DXF Platform
Standard DXF R2000 — compatible with any CAD package
Legal-Plot does not replace Civil 3D or Carlson — it fills the gap those tools leave: automatic geographic placement from the legal description alone, with all major CAD and GIS formats included.
On-the-Ground Verification

See Every Corner in Street View

Once your parcel is geo-located, Legal-Plot pulls up Google Street View aimed at each boundary corner along the perimeter. Because it knows exactly where every corner sits, the camera points straight at it — so you can scan the ground for physical evidence before anyone drives to the site.

At every corner

Every geo-located boundary corner with Street View coverage gets its own on-the-ground view, right after upload.

Aimed at the corner

The camera points straight at each corner's position — no hunting up and down the street for the right spot.

Capture dates

See when Google captured the available panorama, when a date is supplied. Historical imagery is not searched.

Spot field evidence

Scan for surveyor's lath, flagging, paint marks, fence posts, and visible monuments before scheduling a field visit.

A coverage badge shows how many corners have Street View, and every distance is reported in feet.
