The Challenge

Getting your site design into the right hands means getting it into the right format. That is rarely straightforward:

  • Contractors need DXF, engineers need STEP, clients want a visual walkthrough
  • Different stakeholders speak different format languages — and expect you to be fluent in all of them
  • Manual conversion is tedious, error-prone, and often loses georeferencing or metadata along the way
  • You should not need a GIS degree just to share your site plan

The SiteCAD Way

SiteCAD gives you multiple paths from design to deliverable. Quick Export captures your viewport as a high-resolution image in one click. Sheet Drawings lets you compose professional 2D documents with views, annotations, and title blocks. And for data exchange, choose from 12+ industry-standard formats directly, or let the AI assistant handle the decision — just describe who the file is for.

Georeferencing, materials, and metadata are preserved across data formats automatically. Export specific elements or the entire site in a few clicks.

From Screen to Page

Not every deliverable needs a data file. Sometimes you need a clean image for a presentation or a dimensioned drawing for a permit package.

All tiers

Quick Export

Capture your current 3D viewport as a PNG or JPG at up to 4x resolution. One shortcut, one click — your design becomes a shareable image.

  • PNG or JPG format
  • 1x, 2x, or 4x resolution
  • Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+E
  • Right-click context menu
Studio and above

Sheet Drawings

Compose professional 2D drawings with plan views, sections, elevations, and dimension annotations. Export as print-ready SVG or PDF.

  • Plan, section, and elevation views
  • Linear, angular, and leader annotations
  • Title blocks, scale bars, and legends
  • SVG and PDF export

AI-Assisted Export

Not sure which format to use? You do not need to be. The AI assistant knows which format each profession expects, so you never need to learn the difference between STEP, DXF, GeoJSON, or any other acronym. Just describe what you need in plain language:

"Export the barn as a STEP file for the engineer"
STEP Exports selected structure with full 3D geometry and material data
"Send my property boundaries to the surveyor"
GeoJSON Exports boundary polygons with their real-world coordinates
"Package everything for the permit office"
Bundle Creates a multi-format package with site plan, dimensions, and metadata
"Create a Google Earth file of the property boundaries"
KML Generates georeferenced boundary overlay for Google Earth

The AI assistant is the recommended path for anyone who does not work with file formats daily. Describe the recipient and the purpose — the assistant handles the rest.
