Send GIS Data to AutoCAD

You can convert feature data to drawing objects by attaching the feature sources to your map, adding the features you want, and then exporting the map to DWG format.


Open or create a map file		Open or create a new drawing using a map template

Assign a coordinate system		Imported objects will use this coordinate system

Connect to feature sources		Add features to the map as display layers and create a version if the organization requires it

Export to DWG		Export the entire map to DWG format to convert its contents to drawing objects
