The Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS® uses your ESRI ArcGIS login information to connect AutoCAD Map 3D toolset to your ArcGIS data. Once you’ve signed in, use the Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS to browse available datasets and add ArcGIS data layers into your map drawing. Upon importing the ArcGIS data into your AutoCAD Map 3D drawing, you can edit layer style control the appearance of the mapping features. NOTES: Bringing ArcGIS data into your drawing does not require an ArcGIS account. If you don’t have an ArcGIS account, you can access public data. If you have an ArcGIS account, you can also access data from your organization and your groups, as well as data that you have created.
Map data imported from ArcGIS online can be edited or appended in AutoCAD Map 3D and saved back to ArcGIS online, updating the original data source. Edits can be made to the feature geometry and attributes, or CAD geometry can be added to the feature layer. When you are ready to update the ArcGIS data source, you can Check-in the Features. NOTES: Saving edits and appending data to ArcGIS online data sources requires an ArcGIS account with editing privileges. For more information, see About Roles and Privileges Required to Exchange Data with ArcGIS.
Publishing vector layers from AutoCAD Map 3D to ArcGIS online requires that you sign into your ArcGIS account and select the feature data to publish, define layers, add tags, and specify the publishing location. You can also specify whether to share the published content with your ArcGIS groups and whether it is editable. Publishing requires an ArcGIS account with publishing privileges. For more information, see About Roles and Privileges Required to Exchange Data with ArcGIS. After you publish content, it is available from your Content location in ArcGIS online after you sign in. If you have not already done so, you’ll need to assign a coordinate system to your drawing and confirm that your coordinate system is compatible with ArcGIS Online. Once that has been established, you can Create New Features and Publish to ArcGIS Online. Once the new features have been published as a new dataset in ArcGIS online, you’ll need to import the new dataset for further editing of the ArcGIS data in AutoCAD Map 3D.
Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS allows you to directly import ArcGIS data into your InfraWorks models. Depending on the type of data that is imported, you can configure the ArcGIS data to InfraWorks feature properties. Upon importing the ArcGIS data into InfraWorks the attribute data can be viewed in the object’s asset card. To remove and refresh ArcGIS datasets, use the Data Source Panel. The following InfraWorks features can be imported from ArcGIS online: Barriers Buildings City Furniture Coverages Culverts Drainage End Structures Easements Parcels Pipelines Pipe Connectors Points of Interest (POIs) Railways Right of Ways Roads Traffic Study Areas Trees Water Areas Watersheds
NOTES: See the InfraWorks online help page “About Roles and Privileges Required to Exchange Data with ArcGIS” to learn what permissions are needed to access data sources in ArcGIS online.
The Data Source Panel allows you to save edited InfraWorks features back to ArcGIS. Saving datasets back to ArcGIS requires an ArcGIS account with editing privileges. For more information, see About Roles and Privileges Required to Exchange Data with ArcGIS. This Process steps through the tasks to edit and save back ArcGIS data. To edit the InfraWorks features you can use the respective InfraWorks tools, like grips. After editing the InfraWorks features save it back to the Dataset. NOTES: Some coordinate systems are not supported when publishing to ArcGIS or exporting to FGDB. If a model is assigned an unsupported coordinate system, publishing to ArcGIS or exporting to FGDB will not proceed. See Coordinate Systems Not Supported When Exchanging Data with ArcGIS. In addition, there are three categories of coordinate systems which are not supported: Obsolete Coordinate Systems Arbitrary X-Y Coordinate Systems Test Only Coordinate Systems
Publishing InfraWorks features to ArcGIS requires that you sign in to ArcGIS and then specify the InfraWorks feature to publish, define layers, add tags, and specify the publishing location. You can also specify whether to share the published content with your ArcGIS groups and whether it is editable. Publishing requires an ArcGIS account with publishing privileges. For more information, see About Roles and Privileges Required to Exchange Data with ArcGIS. After you publish content, it is available from your Content location in ArcGIS after you sign in. This Process steps through the tasks to create a new ArcGIS dataset. If you have not already done so, you’ll need to install the ArcGIS Project Engine Data. Once that has been done, you can Create New Features and Publish to ArcGIS Online. Once the new features have been published as a new dataset in ArcGIS online, you’ll need to import the new dataset for further editing of the ArcGIS data in InfraWorks. NOTES: Some coordinate systems are not supported when publishing to ArcGIS or exporting to FGDB. If a model is assigned an unsupported coordinate system, publishing to ArcGIS or exporting to FGDB will not proceed. See Coordinate Systems Not Supported When Exchanging Data with ArcGIS. In addition, there are three categories of coordinate systems which are not supported: Obsolete Coordinate Systems Arbitrary X-Y Coordinate Systems Test Only Coordinate Systems
Another method that you can use to create and share InfraWorks features in ArcGIS is to create a file geodatabase (FGDB). The Export to FGDB command saves the file geodatabase to a specified folder and it does not require an ArcGIS account or publishing privileges.
You can use the Export to FGDB command to export the following InfraWorks feature types to a file geodatabase that can be used in ArcGIS Online or in another application: Barriers Buildings City Furniture Coverages Culverts Drainage End Structures Easements Land Areas Parcels Parking Areas Parking Rows Pipelines Pipe Connectors Points of Interest (POIs) Project Sites Railways Right of Ways Roads Streams Traffic Study Areas Trees Water Areas Watersheds
