Layer survey
Inventory which of hundreds of DXF layers actually carry geometry, block references expanded, before you guess a single pattern.
Parcel extraction
Recover closed parcels and acreage from open plat courses by noding linework at every intersection and assembling the enclosed faces.
Annotation harvest
Every text source in the file: modelspace, paperspace, block definitions, attribute values, and MTEXT hidden inside multileaders.
Quantity rollups
Per-layer length and closed-area totals that reconcile with parcel extraction — honest areas, not summed bounding boxes.
Layer-filtered SVG
Render exactly the linework you care about, one sheet or one layer pattern at a time. Frozen layers you name get force-rendered.
FreeCAD tier
Solid modeling, format conversion, meshing, technical drawings, and assemblies when a full CAD kernel is available.
Battle-tested against a real-world 22 MB Civil 3D subdivision plan set: 941 layers, 1,440 block definitions, 19 sheets.
