You can use this reader if the drawings were created in Civil 3D for a sewer or water system, even if they’ve been modified in AutoCAD later. This format is primarily intended for use with the AutoCAD product Civil 3D. Here at Consortech, we’ve gone around the CAD-to-GIS block more than a few times! AutoCAD Civil 3D In addition to using Safe Software’s detailed guide to choosing a format, we draw on the many projects we’ve successfully delivered for our clients to help you sort your options out. All of the readers below can be used to read CAD data in DWG or DXF format, but each serves a different purpose and uses different parameters. Search for DWG as a format on FME’s readers list and you’ll find quite a few options. When going from CAD to GIS, these are the three basic steps to follow: 1.
Luckily, FME’s ETL (extract, transform, load) tools make it possible to retrieve information from an engineer’s CAD drawings and integrate it into a GIS, and the other way around. As you may have read in our recent blog post, engineers and GIS professionals don’t do the same type of work, and so they use different software solutions that rely on different functionalities and produce their output in different formats.
