TopoDOT is Windows point-cloud processing software for modeling, analysis, and production deliverables. It runs as a desktop application inside Bentley MicroStation, requiring a compatible MicroStation environment. Road and DOT workflows include template extraction, pavement extraction, and intensity-based extraction for topographic and GIS outputs. Rail tools handle rail, overhead catenary, and corridor inspection geometry. Utility workflows extract towers, poles, wires, and clearances, while structural tools turn dense point clouds into 3D meshes for bridges, pier caps, and complex buildings. Automatic Asset ID applies machine learning to identify and extract assets and attributes. The software supports point-cloud registration, classification, geospatial analysis, E57 and LAS/LAZ files, and point-cloud-to-mesh work. TopoDOT describes automation, AI, and machine learning as retaining technician visibility, control, and judgment. Organization licenses allow unlimited users and workstations, with annual maintenance based on tracked workstation user-days. Enterprise 300 costs $12,000 once, with maintenance at $26.00 per user-day.
