This is found in the Viewport's Xdata:

    public static class ViewportExtensions
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// Returns the Viewort type:
        /// 0 = undefined,
        /// 1 = Plan,
        /// 2 = Profile,
        /// 3 = Section
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="vp"></param>
        /// <returns></returns>
        public static short GetViewportType(this Viewport vp)
        {
            short vptype = 0;
            var xArray = vp.XData.AsArray();
            int i = -1;
            foreach (TypedValue tv in xArray)
            {
                i++;
                try
                {
                    if ((string)tv.Value == "AeccPlanProd50ViewportType")
                    {
                        vptype = (short)xArray[i + 1].Value;
                        break;
                    }
                }
                catch { }
            }
            return vptype;

Hi, Is there some cords to get these viewport types by autolisp ?  

        /// 0 = undefined,
        /// 1 = Plan,
        /// 2 = Profile,
        /// 3 = Section

Hi Blckbox,

Thank you for the fast reply. 

I am not that good in autolisp programing, can you please explain with a simple example, how can I call this function in any other autolisp command. I tried by selecting a viewport but not worked.

No problem: 

(defun c:ListViewportType (/ ss)
  (if (setq ss (ssget ":S:E" '((0 . "VIEWPORT"))))
    (prompt
      (strcat
	"\nViewport Type is: "
	(_GetViewportType (ssname ss 0))
	" \n"
      )
    )
  )
  (princ)
)
