Add a New Feature Class to an FDO Data Source

AutoCAD Map 3D Workflow

 
Add a New Feature Class to an FDO Data Source
 
 
 

Use Schema Editor to create a new feature class and define its properties.

NoteThe coordinate system for the map will automatically match your database. You don't need to assign a coordinate system to the map itself, unless you want to transform the data to a different coordinate system. Generally, you should edit in the same coordinate system as your database. If the data is in different coordinate systems, edit one layer at a time so you are always editing in a coordinate system that matches your data.
 
 
 

Open or create a new drawing using a map template

   

Check that the database is set up to work with the AutoCAD Map 3D and that you have the proper privileges and credentials

   

Connect to the data source containing features to edit and create a version, if the organization requires it

   

Create a new feature class and specify its allowable geometry types and properties
