MapWorks Base is a collection of Civil/Survey tools for importing data files and manipulating geometry in Autodesk products including Civil3D, Land Desktop and AutoCAD. It contains functionality for processing extended data, importing/exporting maps, a symbol manager with over mapping 175 symbols, coordinate projection support and a large collection of general tools to improve your productivity.
| Import |
 |
|
Introduction: |
Import major formats produced by ESRI, civil applications and government agencies. This tool allows you to select multiple files, specify a coordinate window, and quickly import mapping information directly into your CAD drawing. Our Import tool has been tested with massive files, including a 3GB SHP/DBF from a major city.
|
| |
|
Project: |
The import tool can do a coordinate projection during import. Simply assign source systems for each file (some autodetected) and a target system. |

| Library |
|
|
Manager: |
A tool for managing both the symbols provided in MapWorks and your own user symbols.
| Scale Previews: |
You can assign a scale factor from 10% to 200% to resize the DWG preview bitmaps. |
| Click Details: |
A single click gives you operating system file details along with properties embedded in the drawing, as accessed from the DWGPROPS command. |
|
| |
|

| |
|
Alt Coords: |

| Set System: |
Sets the system code for the alternate coordinate system. |

|
|
|
Convert Lat/Long: |
Reads lat/long text files (DD/DMS), projects to designated coordinate system and writes to point file. |
