The block can be imported into your current drawing.Ī. Blocks can be associated with points in a geospatial point layer. Polygon layers could represent parcels or buildings.ġ. A line layer could contain utility lines, roadway centerlines, or edges of pavement. A point layer could contain water valves, telephone manholes, or drainage inlets.
However, geospatial layers relate to the GIS feature classes, which possess the attribute tables. Geospatial layers, like AutoCAD layers, serve to contain and organize data.
Each of these feature types have been placed into a geospatial layer. To do so, we will modify the Map styles that have been applied.
Before we create AutoCAD entities, we want to change the appearance of these features to look more like the AutoCAD entities we are seeking. The circular representations are points the linear representations are lines and the shaded shapes are polygons. It’s important to understand that GIS data consists of points, lines, and polygons. These are not yet AutoCAD entities, but they are MAPBULFEATURES or representations of the connected GIS data. We’ve just established a live connection to our GIS data. Close Data Connect palette and zoom extents. On the Data Connect palette, add all schemas to map. In the right pane, click on the folder button and browse to the location of the SHP file collection. In the left pane, click on Add SHP Connection. On the Data Connect palette, connect to the folder containing the ESRI SHP files. On the Display Manager tab of the Task Pane, open the Data Connect palette: Click on Data>Connect to Data. Set the annotation scale.Īt the command line, open up the Map Task Pane: Type mapwspace>(enter)>(enter). Set the workspace to Planning and Analysis. So how do we extract meaningful features from geodatabases for CAD use with Civil 3D? We do so by embracing our Map Task Pane. However, now we are finding GIS data everywhere. Because most of us who use Civil 3D are in the land development business, we tend to focus on the land development tools. This tool enables us to analyze GIS data intelligently in its native format without having to seek out additional software. Back April 26th, 2012 GIS to CAD in Civil 3DĪs you may know, AutoCAD® Civil 3D® is wrapped around a powerful GIS tool called Map 3D.
