mvr600 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Hello everybody, Currently using Cad 2022 Map 3D, I have around three to four hundred GPS points for existing poles and probably more coming, I'm looking for a way to display their respective Lat and Long on the model space on Mtext format like the sample below, any help would be greatly appreciated. I know that your time is valuable. Thank you 116617090_GPSTest.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The answer is actually very simple. If you have CIV3D then just make cogo points and use a LAT LONG Label all done. Maybe this To Set Geographic Location from a Map | AutoCAD 2021 | Autodesk Knowledge Network Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvr600 Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 I have 2022 CAd 3D map, and the all of my locations are in the correct Geolocation. CAD Map 3d does not have the ability to change to cogo points only civil. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Maybe start here FAQ: How can I see the latitude and longitude of the cursor? | AutoCAD | Autodesk Knowledge Network Go down also help about set geographic location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvr600 Posted February 26, 2022 Author Share Posted February 26, 2022 Bigail, Thank you for your help, but I maybe not explaining myself correctly. I get GPS points from a Trimble system that get converted to CAD, during the process of the gps points they get Geolocated correctly on their corresponding places. I take does points and place them in the drawing, I'm trying to find a way to display the coordinates in the drawing of each point right next to the point instead of manually entering each number. I'm not just trying to find a way to look up the number, I want to place the coordinates in the drawing just like the image provided. I don't have Civil3D. See the attached files, the cad file is how I get the point in the drawing and the template has a geographic location as well, if I didn't the gps point would not land in the correct locations. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mvr600 Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 This is the format of how I need them to be in the drawing for all the points. Thanks 811709964_GPSTest.dwg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGAL Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 This appears to be the answer but I could not get it to work as I did not know the relevant world co-ord name to set the geo reference some one else may help https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/visual-lisp-autolisp-and-general/label-lat-long/td-p/3039742 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
