OrthoGraph Webinars

OrthoGraph Architect is a very new technology combining the mobility of the iPad and the opportunities of computer aided design. Using OrthoGraph our users get help in creating floor plans of existing buildings on-site.

We think this new technology needs to be unveiled using on-line presentations, where participants can ask and direct us to help them understand how they can benefit from using OrthoGraph.

Please join our webinars at the following link:

Videos about OrthoGraph Architect 2.1 features

We have released two videos about the most important new features of OrthoGraph Architect 2.1:

The following video shows how simple it is to assign two wall sides of the same wall measured from two rooms. It is only a swipe with your finger and the overlapping walls become correct:



Pointclouds or blueprints on-site in OrthoGraph Architect? Yes, it is true. See the video how simple it is to use a flattened point cloud image for the background to the floor plan drawing. In the video the total image size is 6000x8000px that results in 2,5mm / 0,1" accuracy. You can see that even by this size there is no compromission in speed or usability.

We have moved the OrthoGraph User Forum to our local servers. The former forum has been closed.

On the forum you can find many interesting information about OrthoGraph products, their use and user discussions. The OrthoGraph User Forum gives even more:


  1. you can ask, if you have a problem using any of the softwares. You will get an answer within hours maximum 1-2 days. Your questions can also be valuable for other users too!
  2. would you like to get details about the OrthoGraph Architect iPad application? There is a dedicated forum for it at OrthoGraph Architect iPad questions.
  3. have you got an idea? You can enter feature requests about any OrthoGraph products. The more people are asking for a feature the higher rank we will order to it in our development plans.
  4. would you like to use the surveyed floor-plans in CAD systems? The check out the OrthoGraph CAD Connectivity questions. This is also a living forum meaning any question arriving here will be answered shortly.
We also look forward to get any recommendations about the forum itself, not just about the OrthoGraph applications. Make a comment to this blog post or drop us an e-mail to info@orthograph.net about your idea, we are interested about it!

Step by step section in OrthoGraph Architect User's Guide

We have spent a lot of time on new features, but in some case the documentation was not updated in-line with them. Now we have updated the OrthoGraph Architect User's Guide with a very new section: learn OrthoGraph step by step.

We think that this section might be the most important as it not just drives you through an initial process of creating a floor-plan, but also describes the major differences between OrthoGraph Architect and average CAD programs.

The new user's guide can be downloaded from the regular download page (under documentations):

http://downloads.orthograph.net

but here is also a direct link to it:
