Tools Developed

Customized tools and routines we have developed for GIS and CAD applications include:


1.  A program that takes attributes off of a CAD point and puts them in a polygon in GIS. This      can be extremely useful when converting CAD to GIS.

2.  A program that takes a GIS polygon dataset and writes it in AutoCAD without having      overlapping lines result. The program reads the topology and renders it accurately in            AutoCAD.

3.  A ‘Zoom To ArcGIS from CAD/Zoom to CAD from ArcGIS’ program.  If a user has both the      CAD and GIS program open and makes a change in one program, this tool will allow the             user to automatically zoom to the same spatial location in the other program.

4.  A program to generate a custom grid with specific identifiers for each grid section.

5.  A program that can separate out each RGB band and then recombine them when an image      is reprojected from one coordinate system to another (where ERDAS is not available).

6.  A tool that can take any data set (ArcLayer, AutoCAD), extract the features, and put them      where they are supposed to be in the SDE structure (spatial data standard compliant).
