Seth does a great job of covering the best of Map 3D functionality and tools in Civil 3D without getting bogged down in the details.
Seth covers the best of Map 3D in less than an hour. No small challenge. His large Surfaces from Map Attached drawing Queries is alone worth a look see here.

Map 3D is one of the best things built into Civil 3D that many ignore and therefore work way too hard.
This is best Map 3D tools overview I have seen in a long time. Thanks Seth!
If you don't use MAPCLEAN on a regular basis, we can only ask, "What Are You Thinking?"

Sadly, it's been a long while since I've found a decent Autodesk Vault demo. Thanks Joe. This is a good one and worth a review if you want to understand the benefits and mechanics of Vault.

We skip forward the start this video to the beginning of the Vault demo.
That does not mean the informative and detailed Powerpoint presentation before the demo isn't useful.

The better and more developed your Civil 3D Project Templates are the easier Vault is to implement and reap the just rewards.
