VizTerra
What it is
VizTerra is Windows landscape design software for professionals designing, presenting, and building outdoor living spaces. Users draw in 2D, switch to interactive 3D, and create construction plans from the same project file. The software calculates measurements, square footage, and quantities as designs develop. Its library lists 1,922 3D objects, 1,241 HD materials, and 1,748 trees and shrubs. Optional GIS adds parcel boundaries, setbacks, a home footprint, and scaled high-resolution aerial imagery. Presentation tools support photo capture up to 8K and an integrated video storyboard. VizTerra imports AutoCAD DWG/DXF and exports DXF, JPG, and PDF. Designs can be sent to the optional YARD iPad app for augmented-reality viewing. A 30-day full-feature trial requires no credit card. The per-seat plan is listed at $9,784 a month, with monthly or annual billing details and a $95 setup fee.
