Integration of Civil 3D Data into GIS

Mar 2010 | No Comment

Safe Software announced that its spatial extract, transform and load (ETL) solution, FME®, can now seamlessly integrate Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D® data into GIS. These new capabilities will help municipalities more efficiently leverage contractor data submissions to maintain their GIS dataset for meeting their federal asset management requirements.

To fulfill government regulated mandates related to infrastructure asset tracking, GIS technicians at municipalities must regularly gather as-built data in Civil 3D format from contractors and manually input this information into their GIS. Time consuming and prone to human error, the inefficiency of manual data entry prevents GIS professionals from gaining the full richness of Civil 3D datasets and results in time lags that hinder data maintenance.

In response to strong market demand, Safe Software provides interoperability for Civil 3D data by extending FME to support reading this format. Civil 3D datasets can now be quickly translated and transformed into information that is immediately usable within municipal geographic information systems.
