There is an FME template for CAD to GIS transformation. That should help you to start. If you need more details, contact me, I can help you with CAD to GIS workflow.

Hi,

 

 

that is a very general question with no single answer, but you could start with this recorded webinar video from Safe on the topic. It might clarify how FME works and what it can do for you.

I find the easiest way to go from CAD to GIS is to open the CAD file in the Universal Viewer and Save the data as...

 

 

Making sure you choose Layer Name in the parameters dialog when opening into the Viewer.

This writing is for geographyge ek. I see you listed above a template for CAD to GIS transformation, but I can't find it anywhere. Can you give me the location of where it's located? Thank you for you time and help!
