Mar 22, 2013

Can I import KMZ files into AutoCAD Civil 3D R.2013, or do I need to purchase an add-on package that will make it work?  Does it work with just AutoCAD Map 3D?

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Importing Shape Files

Dec 31, 2012

I am working in AutoCAD map 3D 2011. From my research online, I understand it should be able to import shape files whereas normal versions cannot. I am unable to get my version to recognize the cesus tiger shape files. I am interested in the road information only. I have noticed online that that there should be a "map" or "mapping" option on my toolbar and there is not.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Importing Dwg Files Into Maya

Jul 23, 2012

We have maya 2012 and autocad 2013. Does direct connect 2011 allow you to import autocad dwg files into maya? If not, has Autodesk updated direct connect as a maya/autocad plug in so we can use dwgs between the two programs? I can't get support to answer this, they keep saying "we monitor the forums, ask there." So, here goes! Autodesk ought to take a lesson from zbrush, who imports/exports with one button now!

AutoCAD Map 3D :: 2013 X64 Crash After Importing Old Config Files?

Dec 5, 2012

We have a big problem on several PC's with Acad Map 3D

if the users import their old (Acad 2010 Map 3D) files where symbollists and view settings are stored.

After a restart of Acad it hangs up with following Errors (See attached).

We can solve this issue temporary with restoring the defaults.

So the problem is importing old files so i think it is not campatible with this old acad 2010 files.

Is there a way to import such old files?

I am using different functions in Civil 3D 2012 in order to import DGN files.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Importing SHP Files

Feb 15, 2013

I am trying to import a SHP file to obtain a surface. The imported data come in a polyline.

The data containt x and y as well as elevation. But, when I use the command

" mapimport " , the imported data only have 4 elevation ( 1,2,3 and 4). This is rather unexpected because the line represent the topography of a large area. 

I am working under Civil-3D 2013. The original data are okay, they were exported from GIS and they works fine on this station.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Inserting Images / Importing / Exporting Shp Files Assign Coordinate 2013

Oct 18, 2012

I recently upgraded to Map 3d 2010 to Mapd 3d 2013 and i cannot figure out how to find the commands to insert images or import/export shp files.

I'm running 2013 in "autocad classic" and did so with 2010 as well. 2010 had a menu bar pull down called "Map" where I could insert an image (Image->Insert). There was also in 2010 a toolbar named  "Map" that had import shp, export shp and assign coordinate system.

I can't find any of this in 2013. I can't even find the commands in the customization to create my own toolbar. The commands work (mapiinsert,  mapimport, mapexport and ADESETCRDSYS) but i can't find them listed anywhere.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Error Importing PTX And LAS Files

May 30, 2013

I am trying to import PTX or LAS files into Civil 3D and keep getting coordinate errors. Meaning, the scan data comes in at the right size (I've verified dimensions in RealityLINx) but for some reason the scans keep coming in close to the 0,0,0 point. I have tried two seperate projects, one with arbituary coords (7000, 7000, 600) and another with state plane coords (NAD27, Zone 5).

I have tried two ways... Through the Prospector using the CREATEPOINTCLOUD command. The scan data is in metric units and I have not found a way to convert the scan data, in Civil 3D, to feet units.

The other way I have tried is through the POINTCLOUDINDEX command. This command will convert my PTX or LAS files into a PCG and upon insertion into the drawing, I am able to give it a scale factor to try and convert to feet.

Like I said, I have done this all day today, with separate projects and keep getting the same results. I have inserted the scan data in both metric and feet units, measured identical objects and have come up with the same dimensions between the both units. But I still cannot get them to land where they need to.

I am unsure if this is a coordinate system error but most of the stuff that we scan is in an arbitrary system, so I am not sure if assigning a coordinate system will do the trick.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Working With Imported Shape Files

Sep 12, 2013

I'm new to working with GIS data imported into Civil 3d as shape files.  I'm working on setting up base drawings for a new project area and I have a lot of data displayed as polygons with attributes.  This is nice but I would like to be able to copy these to polylines on layers that I can have a little more freedom to work with. 

For example the polygon boundaries are not exactly the boundaries that I need to show and editing the borders would be nice.  Is there a better alternative to tracing the polygon boundaries?  I have noticed when I extract feature geometry for line strings I get a polyIine I can use but the polygons' extracted geometry is a Mpolygon with solid fill.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Surface Using Shape Files?

Dec 13, 2013

I was given a job where i need to create a surface from a gis file. have been messing with my civ 3d 2013 a little bit and have been able to get a surface comprised of a bunch of polylines to appear (not a true surface). I will need to create profiles so i need a true surface. I downloaded a compressed shape file from the county and need to know how to insert this into a drawing and build a surface using my own surface style.

The files i have to work with:

.dbf
.idx
.prj
.sbn
.sbx
"autocad shape source"
.shp
"autocad complied shape"

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Unable To Assign Coordinate System When Importing LAS Files

Aug 8, 2012

I have been trying to import LAS files via Civil 3D 2011.

To do this I first turn the workspace to ''Tool based geospatial''. Then i assign a global coordinate system which is the same one as the LAS file i am importing. The in the task pane window (command: mapwspace) under display manager tab i right click on map base --> data --> add point cloud data --> create new index and then choose the file I want to import. Here i have some trouble; in the create new index window i am unable to assign a coordinate system, i can find the one i need but i cant select it (or any other), it persists on staying unselected. I am able to create an index without a coordinate system but I need it with the right coordinates.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Importing Multiple Building Sites As ADSK Files

Jan 2, 2014

I am working on a project where I need to bring in multiple building site files from Revit as .adsk files to one Civil 3D model. The first building always imports just fine.  For any building after the first, I get the following message:

"The selected file contains a definition of a building site that is already in use."

"What would you like to do?"

"Update the definition of the existing building site (cancel the import and use the selected file to update the definition of the existing building site.)" - THIS OPTION REPLACES THE FIRST BUILDING WITH THE NEW BUILDING I HAVE SELECTED

"Browse to another file (display the file browse dialog to select a different file.)"

My team and I have tried every we can think of including the following (see attached):

Renaming the files Moving the files to different folders Importing each building site into a new file and copy and pasting into the model (this works until someone tries to import a building site, which will inevitably happen and ruin this work around)Double-checking all related settings.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Suddenly Lost Linetypes That Use Shape Files

Nov 16, 2006

i have a drawing i am working and somehow i lost my linetypes that use shape files, anything with text in the linetype work fine. I have tried to reload the shape file, compile it and to no avail. my file directories are pointing in the right direction and everytime i load and compile it goes to correct file and directory.

The reason i say i caused it is they were in the drawing working fine, and 1 or 2 commands later gone, I tried to insert the drawing into a new drawing and that did not work. if i start a new drawing it works fine.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: 2013 Keeps Corrupting Block Files?

Aug 27, 2013

I am using Civil 3D 2013

Every time I go to modify or even just save a previously created block my copy of C3D will corrupt the file. The corruption of the file is not noticeable until I go to insert the block into any other dwg. If I try to insert this modified block into any drawing it will not scale to the correct units. It does not matter if it is a dynamic block or a simple block of a square it will corrupt them all the same way. Extremely Frustrating to stay the least.

P.S. I have tried using the repair tool, re-install and a coplete uninstall and reinstall of AutoCAD C3D 2013 and no change. I also have installed Service Pack 2.
