Concept
IntelliCAD
Summary
IntelliCAD is a CAD editor and development platform with an Application Programming Interface API published by the IntelliCAD Technology Consortium ("ITC") through shared development. IntelliCAD emulates the basic interface and functions of AutoCAD, however, it is particularly able to incorporate and interchange freely between a wide variety of file types (i.e. dwg., BIM, TIFF, etc.).
ITC IntelliCAD is not sold directly to end users but is licensed to consortium members, who support the shared development by paying annual fees, similar to a co-op arrangement, in exchange for permission to distribute IntelliCAD-based solutions worldwide with their own end-user license agreements.
Founded in 1999, the IntelliCAD Technology Consortium ("ITC") is the international, non-profit organizational body that develops the IntelliCAD engine and development platform for its members. The ITC also develops integrations with third-party technologies, such as the "ODA Platform" from the Open Design Alliance which it uses for working with “.dwg”, Building information modeling (BIM), and DGN data formats.
The ITC supports interoperability and is a founding member of the Open Design Alliance. The ITC is registered in the state of Washington in the US, and its corporate headquarters are based in Portland, Oregon, USA.
IntelliCAD's native format is .dwg and it has a set of commands similar to AutoCAD by Autodesk. IntelliCAD can also natively open and edit MicroStation DGN files by Bentley Systems.
Included in IntelliCAD functionality:
Read and write binary .dwg and DGN files.
Work with BIM files and data, and AEC entities.
Familiar command line and user interface for creating and editing CAD drawings.
Complex linetypes, multiline text, lightweight polylines, audit and recover, and blocks.
File support for customizations (.CUI), menus (.MNU), scripts (.SCR) (AutoLISP macro language), hatches, fonts including TrueType fonts, raster images, digital signatures.
