About LISTECH Neo

Today more than ever, our customers need to rely on seamless workflows for their projects. To improve project efficiencies, we have developed Neo - a comprehensive, integrated software solution that simplifies the most complex jobs for faster results.

Neo is user-friendly geospatial software that transforms raw data into useful information, with the capability to handle large 3D datasets, versatile 3D and 2D viewing, and extensive functionality.

A flexible modular design allows our customers to only purchase the functionality required for their specific business needs, and our subscription based licensing model allows our customers to easily scale up and down as business requirements change.

Key Features

Easily exchange attribute rich data

Neo’s flexible user attribute definition system means tasks that were considered challenging in the past can now be completed with ease. User attribute definition opens new opportunities when needing to undertake attribute rich projects. Neo easily handles large data sets and supports the import and export of many file formats to give you the ultimate flexibility – all while allowing you to work with speed in the familiar Windows environment.

CAD rich and high-fidelity 3D graphics

Neo’s CAD rich and high-fidelity graphics make it easier to visualise your data. Neo seamlessly exchanges with CAD, providing direct import and export to CAD packages. Neo also includes its own fully integrated CAD module capable of producing final quality plans without the need to export to a third-party CAD system.

Supports all major survey field instruments and manufacturers

Easily transfer data between different instruments and sensor types. Neo can be used across multiple hardware solutions to help you save time with setting up different manufacturer instrument definitions.

Work in a true 3D environment with Neo

A 3D environment makes it easier for you to work in and present work to your client. Bring data to life to better visualise the scope and scale of projects, for quality control, processing and exchanging with CAD, GIS and BIM.

Design

Quickly and accurately design horizontal alignments for roads using Neo's user definable parameter-based design standards. Horizontal alignments that include circular and/or combined curves are automatically created based on the selected design standard. With the Intersection Point Manager you can make tweaks to particular curves to suit local constraints or requirements.
