4 GIS Data - Background Linework CAD Can be in a coordinate system (county coordinates etc.) Civil 3D GIS Linework with attributes. Must exist in a coordinate system. 9 GIS Data - Background GIS Data Types Vector Raster Point Line Polygon 10 4

5 GIS Vector Data - Background Many file formats exist. Common Vector File Formats: Shapefiles (.shp and supporting files) File geodatabase (folder w many files esri) Spatial data file (.sdf) (Autodesk) 11 GIS Raster Data - Background Common Aerial Image Raster Formats Image File Name Associated World File Name Aerial_Image.sid Aerial_Image.tiff Aerial_Image.sdw Aerial_Image.tfw 12 5

6 Accessing GIS Data from Civil 3D Two Ways: Connect to GIS files or a service Importthe GIS data 13 Accessing GIS Data from Civil 3D There are multiple tools available to connect or importgis Data in Civil 3D Data Connect (connect) Map Import (import) ArcGIS for AutoCAD Plugin (connect) Geolocation/Bing Maps (connect) Civil 3D Surface Import (import) 14 6

7 Examples Connect to an Aerial Image (local file) Connect to shapefile (local file) Import shapefile (local file) Connect to a File Geodatabase (local file) Connect to GIS services using the ArcGIS for AutoCAD plugin (internet connection) Import GIS Contours and Make a Civil 3D Surface (local file) Connect to Bing Aerial Imagery (internet connection) Import Google kml/kmz file (local file) 15 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Launch Civil 3D Set Drawing Units Assign Coordinate System to Drawing In Toolspace, under the Settings Tab, right click on the drawing name 16 7

11 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Select Add Raster Connect to Aerial Image - Example Browse to Raster Location Select Connect 24 11

12 Connect to Aerial Image - Example There was no world file in this case, so a coordinate system for the raster needs to be manually added. Double click unknown to manually add coordinate system for the raster connection. 25 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Select Edit

13 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Select coordinate system of the raster. Then click Select 27 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Select Ok 28 13

14 1/22/2019 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Coordinate system is now correct. Select Add to Map 29 Connect to Aerial Image - Example Raster has now been georeferenced to the Civil 3D data in the dwg C3D survey data is in WI State Plane NAD 27. Raster is WI State Plane NAD 83. C3D automatically transformed the Raster to match up with Civil 3D data! 30 14

15 Connecting to Shapefiles - Example Shapefile format {hint: put all in the same folder} Parcels.shp(contains the geometry of the features) Parcels.shx(index file) Parcels.dbf(the attribute data) Parcels.prj(coordinate system, projection info) Other 31 Connecting to Shapefiles - Example From the Planning and Analysis Ribbon Home tab, Add an SHP Connection 32 15

16 1/22/2019 Connecting to Shapefiles - Example Select the folder with the shape files, then Add to Map 33 Connecting to Shapefiles - Example Under the View Tab, open the Map Task Pane. GIS Items can be stylized and annotated from here. Tree shapefile has been added

17 Importing Shapefiles - Example Under the Insert tab, Select Map Import Select the shapefile to import and click OK 35 Importing Shapefiles - Example Select if you want to import the shapes as closed polylines (POLYLINE) rather than map polygons (MPOLYGON) 36 17

18 1/22/2019 Importing Shapefiles - Example Shapefile has now been imported as a closed polyline in the dwg. 37 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase ESRI File Geodatabase is a folder of GIS data. The format is newer and supersedes the shape file format

19 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase Civil 3D can (usually) connect to and understand a File Geodatabase. 39 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase This is what a File geodatabase looks like if you open it in Windows file explorer Does not make much sense

20 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase This is what a Filegeodatabase looks like if you open it in GIS software (Arc Catalog) 41 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase- Example Select Add ArcGIS Connection Select FGDb (File Geodatabase) 42 20

21 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase- Example Select the File Geodatabase (.gdb) Select OK 43 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase- Example Select Connect 44 21

22 Connect to ESRI File Geodatabase- Example Assign coordinate system (if unknown), select, add feature classes to the dwg After adding to dwg, these services are now viewable and editable (linework and data) in the dwg. 45 In addition to the examples provided: Connect to services (such as ArcGIS Feature Services, WFS and Open Data Services) through Data Connect. More Ways to Connect 46 22

23 ArcGIS for AutoCAD Plugin 47 ArcGIS for AutoCAD Plugin ArcGIS for AutoCAD Free plugin Download at: Follow Installation Instructions 48 23

24 Once the plugin has been installed on your computer, the plugin needs to be loaded into Civil 3D. ArcGIS for AutoCAD Launch Civil 3D. Then type NETLOAD on the AutoCAD command line. 49 ArcGIS for AutoCAD (NETLOAD) Browse to the location of the plugin Select ArcGISForAutoCAD.dll 50 24
