According to the research of problem of data conversion from AutoCAD to GIS, this paper analyzes the characteristics of AutoCAD data and GIS data, and finds out the comparison relationship of graphic data conversion from AutoCAD to GIS. With the aid of the component libraries of ArcEngine and ObjectARX, the research implements the graphic data conversion using c # language in .NET environment, ...

Although there are plenty of AutoCAD books available for architects, interior designers, and engineers, it has been difficult for the author to find an appropriate textbook for students who major in interior design while teaching AutoCAD, especially 3-D AutoCAD at the sophomore level. Most existing 3-D AutoCAD textbooks are more engineering oriented. Industrial machine components such as bolts ...

This paper describes the work done towards designing a computer aided system for planning crane operations on a construction site using object-oriented programming concepts. The use of object-oriented programming concepts for design is important as it facilities robust design, distributed development, modularity, reusability and easy extension of features. Based on the planning and representati...

This paper presents three different graphics tools for visualization of mesh partitioning results in the field of parallel finite element computations. The first one is developed using the X-Window library and is portable across UNIX environments supporting X-Window. The second one is built upon AutoCAD using AutoLISP and is portable across systems where AutoCAD is available. The last one is de...

In the Second Chinese Country Survey, MAPGIS (Map Geographic Information System) is widely used all over the country in the Cadastral Database Construction. There are plenty original data is saved in the AutoCAD (Auto Computer Aided Design) data format. Therefore it is important to find a way which can exchange and share the data between AutoCAD and MAPGIS effectively and efficiently. In order ...
