Convert GIS data, such as contained in a shapefile, to feature objects on a map coverage. Select the Mapping \| Shapes → Feature Objects command. Use the GIS to Feature Objects Wizard to create feature objects on a map coverage.

2. Convert CAD data to feature objects.
Right-click on the CAD dataset in the Project Explorer and select Convert \| CAD → Map. Use the options in the Clean Options dialog. A new map coverage with converted CAD data will appear in the map module.
