SMS:CAD Data Workflow: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:42, 5 August 2015

To use CAD data in SMS, use the following steps:

1. SMS project setup.

1. Start SMS, or clear existing projects in SMS.
If SMS is already running, select File \| Delete All. A new project can also be started by using CTRL + N.

2. Set the display projection.
Select the Display \| Projection... command. Set the horizontal and vertical projection using the Display Projection dialog.

2. Gather CAD data files.
Make certain all CAD data files for the project have been collected. Before importing, check that the data is in a file type that SMS can recognize. For CAD data these are DXF and DWG files.

3. Open files.
Use the File \| Open command to launch the Open dialog. Locate the files to be opened. Multiple files may be opened at once using the Ctrl key.

4. Review data.
Check data to see that it shows up in the Project Explorer and any feature objects are in the Graphics Window. Check data projection. Check data attributes. When done checking the data, continue with the project.
