Installing AutoCAD Map 3D

In order to use NET, you need to have AutoCAD Map 3D installed. At the moment, versions 2021, 2022 and 2023 are supported. If you already have a NET supported Map 3D installation on your device, you can start the NET installation immediately.

To download Map 3D open the page https://manage.autodesk.com. Please log in with your Autodesk account that has a license associated with it.

Once logged in, select "Products and Services" - if you do not see this item directly, click on the "Account" icon and under Account there is "Products and Services".
