Objects exported to geospatial files or servers
From the current drawing to new or existing tables in files or schemas inside files or databases
Select the objects to be exported
Choose between exporting the selected objects, the objects in a layer or the whole drawing
Option to treat the closed polylines as polygons
Most of the time the closed polylines represent polygonal elements on the target data format and this conversion can be automatic
Options for objects geometry data
Export the coordinates X/Y/Z, the Length, the Area and the Elevation in new fields of the data tables
The Z-coordinate is exported in all the cases. If not available, the object Elevation is exported as Z-coordinate
Export the content of the Text objects and their basic properties (Rotation and Height)
Automatic complex geometric operations
Review and editing of the selected objects in order to export geometries accommodated in the target format, such as the polygonal segmentation on curves if required
Filtering of incompatible objects
There are a few object types not supported by the export processes (such as complex 3D objects), which are automatically filtered. The filter result is displayed before exporting
Upon completion of any export process to a file, the file location can be opened directly. When exporting to a KML or KMZ file it can be chosen to open the file in Google Earth (if installed)
This function allows direct conversion between different data providers formats and sources without the need to import/export into/from drawing
Google Earth internally works with meters as elevation units and this can be an obstacle when feet are the desired measurement units. This tutorial explains an easy workaround for viewing... more
An ESRI Geodatabase File (FileGDB), is a powerful database system designed to store, query, and manage spatial data as a collection of files stored directly on disk without the requirement... more
Height units remain unchanged when coordinate conversions are applied, but sometimes it is required to change them, especially when the target format is limited to a specific unit, this happens... more
3D modeled objects are exported to Google Earth (KML/KMZ) in a very easy and intuitive way. Different altitude and height modes are available depending on how the model has been... more
