Information for CAD Users
AutoZoom Pro will allow you to quickly and easily get all the latest mapping data for your site at just a click of a button.
AutoZoom Pro is simple to use.
- Pick the mapping data required from the list of available sources
- Select the area of your site
- Let AutoZoom fetch the data you need fast and efficiently
AutoZoom will locate the mapping data, connect to the datasource, access the data, filter the area you need and import it to your drawing. It does not matter if the data is in ArcGIS Server, Oracle, SHP files, DWG or any other GIS format, AutoZoom Pro takes care of everything and will save you hours of repetitive work.
Features
AutoZoom Pro is a utility to enhance AutoCAD Map, it is designed to access geospatial and mapping data fast, easy and efficiently, without any specialist GIS knowledge or training and setup costs.
Now CAD users can get quick and easy direct access to the wealth of information in the geospatial data store, whether that store is a centralised GIS database, GIS files, or thousands of DWGs.
No more working on out-of-date data, searching for the correct data sets, learning how to import them or cutting the data for your area. AutoZoom Pro will do all this for you in seconds.
Simple to use
AutoZoom Pro is very simple to use, just pick the type of data you need to see and select the area, the systems will go and query just the data you need. It’s as quick and simple as that, all the hard work of connecting to data sets, styling and filtering is all done for you.
- Makes AutoCAD Map quick and easy to use
- AutoZoom Pro allows the CAD user to quickly access the data they need with no fuss, no extensive learning of a new systems.
- Encourages the creation and upkeep of geospatial data
Zoom Tools
AutoZoom Pro adds extra tools for zooming, zoom by scale or Ordnance Survey Sheet reference, just click on the scale and point in the map, or just type an OS sheet reference and AutoZoom Pro will zoom to that location and display the selected data.
- Easy to find and zoom directly to the area you need at the scale you want.
Automatic Filters
AutoZoom Pro will automatically filter the data to only retrieve the data you need.
The automatic filters greatly reduce the load on system resources whilst making dramatic improvements on speed of response, no longer will you have to wait for the dreaded caching.
- Speeds up request time and reduces the amount of data retrieved
- Can handle large datasets
- Makes conversion of Geospatial data to CAD format easier, as it converts just the data you need
Connecting and managing maps
When you select the type of data to display, AutoZoom Pro, will find the location of the data and will connect to it. If using DWG it will decide which of all possible thousands of drawing you need and attach just the necessary files. For Geospatial data AutoZoom Pro will manage your connections, whether the data is in Oracle, SHP or some other format.
AutoZoom Pro will make CAD users into advanced AutoCAD Map users, connecting and filtering data at a click of a button
- Access to the full range of Geospatial data available within the organisation
- Always have access to up to date data, by quickly connecting to the central geospatial data store, CAD users will be able to access the latest data the organisation has
- No need for geospatial data to be specifically converted for CAD users
Simultaneous access of DWG and Geospatial data
Mapping data can be accessed from AutoCAD DWG files and other Geospatial formats simultaneously, just select the maps from the AutoZoom Pro list. If the data is in DWG files or a host of other supported FDO formats, AutoZoom Pro will display the data.
No matter what format your data is in, AutoZoom Pro can help you see all your data together in context
- Helps minimise errors of engineering design not matching reality, by getting easy access to latest data and seeing a range of data in context, AutoZoom Pro should help minimise design errors.
Scale dependence
Using AutoZoom Pro will only show data relevant for the display scale. If you looking at a large area then only data suitable for that scale will be displayed, as you zoom in new data sets will be accessed. For instance when looking at city wide, you will only access road centre line data, but as you zoom in it will automatically access MasterMap data.
- Scale dependency really streamlines the use of the system speeding access to data and reducing system resources needed.
Shared Configuration
AutoZoom Pro can now utilise a shared configurations on the network, allowing for rapid deployment of corporate standards and newly added datasets.
AutoZoom Pro makes it so easy to share new data with CAD users, just, configure once on one machine and all users can get access to the latest data.
- Assists in adhering to corporate standards
Support Data Connections Styles
AutoZoom Pro is very easy for administrators to set up, just create and style a data connection using standard AutoCAD Map commands and then save as an AutoZoom Search, any stylisation will be save and honoured within AutoZoom Pro.
- AutoZoom Pro makes it easy to apply constant drawing styles across all drawings
Keynetix Gazetteer Integration
>
AutoZoom Pro integrates with Keynetix Gazetteer. Use the Gazetteer to search and zoom to a location and seamlessly use AutoZoom Pro to retrieve any mapping data for the area.
- Instantly find the location and the mapping needed
