Notes
GeoTools V25 (Windows) is available on AutoCAD, BricsCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander.
The software runs as a plugin inside these operating CAD platforms and there is no separate icon created on the Windows desktop to run GeoTools.
You must uninstall all and any previous versions of GeoTools before installing the V25 version. This is important as, failure to do so may result in multiple versions of GeoTools attempting to initialize and this may cause conflicts and/or errors.
GeoTools runs on BricsCAD Lite also, since this is a 100% Lisp application. However, it does not run on AutoCAD LT, and requires a full version of AutoCAD. It runs on ZWCAD Standard and professional versions.

Future announcement: Work in progress: GT_L-SECTION command (Civil Tools)
We have started work on a new and cool command called GT_L-SECTION that will complement our existing GT_PROFILE command
and offer an alternative method to create cross-sectional profiles (or long sections, as they are called in some countries).
This new approach allows you to select levels and chainages from a CSV or Excel file and create cross-sections quickly.
