Unit of competency

Modification History

Release 1.

Replaces superseded equivalent CPPSIS4037A Produce computer-aided drawings.

This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Version 3.

Application

This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to use appropriate software program functions and features to produce drawings for spatial tasks. The unit covers determining task requirements, including analysing task or design specifications and client needs, and setting up hardware and software applications. It requires the ability to use software functions and features to prepare digital and paper computer-aided spatial drawings, and to test and validate the integrity of drawings.

The unit supports those who work in technical support positions in a surveying and spatial information services team, and take some responsibility for liaising with clients or end users to meet task requirements.

No licensing, legislative, regulatory, or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency at the time of endorsement.

Pre-requisite Unit

Replaces superseded equivalent CPPSIS4037A Produce computer-aided drawings.

This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Version 3.

Performance Evidence

A person demonstrating competency in this unit must satisfy the requirements of the elements, performance criteria, foundation skills and range of conditions of this unit. The person must also use a range of software program functions and features to produce two different computer-aided spatial drawings that meet technical specifications.

While producing the above computer-aided spatial drawings, the person must:

  • analyse the following specifications to translate requirements into design:
  • measurements and dimensions for objects and space
  • scope for making adjustments
  • technical objectives
  • timeframes for completing work tasks
  • allocated resources
  • specific client requirements
  • select and use appropriate equipment and software, as specified in the assessment conditions, to produce spatial drawings
  • communicate clearly with others to clarify task requirements and drawing detail
  • comply with organisational requirements relating to:
  • completing records and documentation
  • data storage and privacy of information
  • health and safety when using screen-based equipment
  • comply with industry-accepted drawing standards and legislation associated with the quality of computer-aided drawings, including:
  • accuracy of measurements, tolerances and information
  • complying with drawing principles, formats and standards for spatial drawings
  • exercise precision and accuracy in relation to drawing production
  • import a file containing a detail survey, including feature coding and digital terrain data, and produce a drawing containing appropriate symbols and a three-dimensional (3-D) terrain model
  • produce drawings using data imported from other software.
