Use ADEDEFDATA to create GIS Attributes within Civil 3D & Map 3D

In this (12 min) video, I show how to create GIS attributes using the ADEDEFDATA command. In short, the command creates "Object Data" that can then be assigned to geometry within the model. If the geometry is core AutoCAD objects, it can then be exported to an ESRI shape (.SHP) format.

Thanks for the breakdown of steps. It's a shame that Autodesk doesn't even have explanations broke down like this. I appreciate you taking the time out to put this together

You have no idea how helpful was this tutorial for me. Thank you!

[@darkomilosavljevic]

Whenever i have some problem with civil 3d, somehow i end up doing what Jerry says. Jerry, thank you!

[@bigfishcb]

Thank you for making this video! I’m in the process of creating Airport CAD files for the FAA and this is just what I was looking for!

[@linhgt]

wow, the unknown command in cad is like the ocean and this is gold in the ocean

[@saital]

Thank you so much! That was simple an perfect!

@Garrett Fernando i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@gordonbentley1476]

@Garrett Fernando it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account !

@Gordon Bentley you are welcome :D

great video. thanks

[@skrimpdaddy]

Thanks for this video Jerri, Civil3D has changed our business practice where our water authority has a submittal policy that requires submitting engineers to completely separate the utility features onto separate layers within the drawing by feature type and diameter. This allows us use the "load objects" tool in Arcmap to mass load and mass attribute the cad points and lines into the feature classes by the various cad layers within the drawing. This tool "load objects" will not be included in ArcPro. So we are looking at updating our policy to speak to a Civil3D workflow, where the append tool in ArcPro will take the place of the load objects tool. I hope to share our schema with area engineers to match our schema and supply us with properly attributed data that will append to our utility feature classes seamlessly. Do you have any experience in ArcPro appending attrubuted data to a feature class? if so I would love a video of that. Thanks!

whether instead of the annotations of the parsel, can you insert a hatch or change existing hatch color based on the polygon object's data yes or no value? I dont want to use shp file for this operation.

[@richardhinds3376]

Hi Jerry,
I have a number of parcels in Autocad Map 3d. I can go in and attach ODT information to each parcel manually. Is there a way to have this information in Excel or Access and connect it to the lots automatically?
Thanks
Richard Hinds

[@archlegolamidearth8685]

Hi Jerry Great video. Just a question. I exported Civil 3D pipe network with "Object data" using "Export Civil objects to SDF" option but when Importing I did not get object data only usual pipe network attributes. Any thoughts?

[@echawia]

thank you so much

[@benm2918]

Is there a way to merge object data (OD) on a SHP file of points into a new OD row (automatically with many points)?

[@luisandersoncerinopires3207]

The same can be used with polylines? or only with poligons ? The purpose is create a description of poligon information (data) and objetc data from polylines touching the poligon

[@StefanoVerugi]

Not an expert here but I believe the same can be applied to points and lines or polylines too. It depends on what you need to use to identify your data applied to geospatial elements.

[@LarryBloom47]

hello, in trying to export polylines to shp polygons keeps returning "no entity to export". please help?

[@TheKingpro]

same here...

[@TheKingpro]

did you find a fix?

[@swabicivilknowledge4582]

Hi sir how are you
