Transcript
00:03
With pipe network schema mapping, you can map attributes that have been defined in ArcGIS data
00:09
to the pipe and structural properties that are used for the pipe network in your Civil 3D model.
00:15
Begin this example by first using the Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS
00:20
to successfully bring ArcGIS data into Civil 3D.
00:25
Now, with Civil 3D open to the appropriate design project,
00:30
first select the pipe data you want to bring into your drawing.
00:33
The Schema Mapping dialog box displays, which you use to map attributes in ArcGIS data to pipe and structure properties in Civil 3D.
00:43
Within the dialog box, there is a tab for each pipe or structure layer you are bringing into Civil 3D,
00:50
so you can define the mapping parameters for each layer.
00:53
For this example, in the Schema Mapping dialog box, in the Structures – Sewer_Structure tab,
00:60
change the Inner Structure Diameter* Default Value to 60.
01:04
Next, select Property Mapping file,
01:07
choose the Civil 3D Connector – Begin.json file, click Open, and select OK.
01:15
Using pipe network schema mapping in Civil 3D allows you to easily map attributes from the GIS data
01:22
and populate them in your pipe network.
