AutoCAD Map 3D 2012

AutoCAD® Map 3D GIS mapping software offers easier access to design, GIS, imagery, point cloud, and business information from a broad range of sources, including Esri, Bentley, Oracle, GE, and other software providers. By using comprehensive data models for the gas, water, wastewater, and electric industries, you can organize disparate asset information and apply industry standards and business requirements to your data.

New stylization framework and user interface enables you to create complex map styles using feature label and annotation tools.

Search for or create coordinate systems using custom grid files, and utilize modern algorithms for transforming coordinate systems. Work with more than 4,000 real-world coordinate systems, or define and manage your own custom coordinate system. Perform on-the-fly coordinate transformations and use tools such as Transform, Rubbersheeting, and Track Coordinates to more accurately georeference your AutoCAD® design data.

Incorporate complex standards, data models, and associations using water, wastewater, gas, and electric models.

Use connectivity information built into the industry models to identify connected facilities or analyze the impact of your actions on your infrastructure.

Use familiar AutoCAD drafting and editing commands directly with a variety of geospatial formats to help increase productivity.

Enhanced Excel® spreadsheet capabilities enable you to join attribute and GIS data and edit the Excel data store directly inside AutoCAD Map 3D GIS mapping software. Additionally, improved spatial database tools allow you to store and use multiple geometric representations of your infrastructure assets, providing you with the flexibility to choose the geometry that best suits your task deliverable requirements.

Use Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC®) standard web service’s data sources directly in AutoCAD Map 3D GIS mapping software for your planning, mapping, and data management workflows.
