Hi! Im working as a geologist, and im doing Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Screening. I need to model landscape and geology of the ground. Can i do it with microstation or autocad…or are there any specific programs for that kind of modelling? http://www.rockware.com/product/overview.php?id=164 Quite expensive, but relatively inexpensive for a company. And MapInfo Professional is used extensively in geographical/geological statistical mapping, obviously. ArcGis is another professional option. Inexpensive options for geological mapping software include: More general landscape modeling/rendering software: The list goes on and on – have a look here for an exhaustive list: A list of geo software can be found at: A list of open source GIS software: Enjoy!

Specific software for geology related mapping would be, for example, Rockworks: http://www.rockware.com/product/overview.php?id=164 Quite expensive, but relatively inexpensive for a company.
