CHCNAV CoProcess 2026.1.0: Point Cloud Processing & CAD Drafting Software

CHCNAV CoProcess 2026.1.0 is an advanced point cloud data processing platform designed to meet today’s project demands while scaling easily to support future needs . Built on CHCNAV’s proven LiDAR software ecosystem, CoProcess  enables seamless handling of massive datasets—over 100 GB of point cloud data in a single session without batching—and incorporates intelligent extraction algorithms to deliver efficient and highly accurate results .

The software combines powerful point cloud processing capabilities with built-in CAD tools, allowing users to generate detailed elevation views and floor plans, both interior and exterior, directly from point clouds and 3D models . Its streamlined workflow connects raw data with final design output, helping teams accelerate project timelines and improve productivity.

CoProcess 2026.1.0 is an entirely new software platform, not an upgrade from CoProcess 2.0. It requires a separate download and installation . The software supports Chinese, English, and Russian languages and is compatible with point clouds from any manufacturer (LAS format) and oblique models in OSGB format
