Meagan11 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Hello all, I have a quick question regarding georeferencing a CAD drawing. If you recieve a drawing from another party and you need to properly georeference it, does anyone know the steps to take to do this? Quote
yekom Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 You can easily do this using Autodesk Map 3D. If you're using the standard Autocad, the correct way to do it is using a DGN file (like Microstation's) and importing it to Autocad. (File-Import). A new window will prompt with the options such as 'Define Coordinate System, spatial filters, among others. Hope that helped. You can also search in the Autocad help files for 'Define the Geographic Location for a DWG File'. Quote
BIGAL Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 Importing a DGN file would be my last resort !!! To many memories of frustration stay away from this answer. Check the help files first Also can you give a bit more detail of what your trying to do, what is in you drawing ? Do you just want it to have new co-ordinates ? Quote
