AutoCAD Map 3D Changelog

What's new in AutoCAD Map 3D 2024

Mar 31, 2023
  • Use Feature Data Objects (FDO) technology:
  • Work with spatial data from a variety of CAD and GIS data formats and coordinate systems.
  • Connect to ArcGIS:
  • Streamline the flow of data between ArcGIS and Map 3D and keep features information up to date.
  • Convert data between DWG and GIS data:
  • Perform high-fidelity data conversions using MapImport and MapExport.

New in AutoCAD Map 3D 2023 (Mar 31, 2022)

  • Highlights:
  • FDO Provider for File Geodatabase:
  • The FDO FGDB provider allows you to access the file geodatabase (FGDB) data. Like the other file-based FDO providers, you can connect to the FGDB data by specifying the path, adding one or more layers to the map, and then defining or editing the features.
  • Geodetic Transformation Preference:
  • Define your preference about coordinate system transformation.
  • Coordinate System Update:
  • This release of AutoCAD Map 3D includes new and updated coordinate systems.
  • Other enhancements:
  • Extended support for the following FDO providers to newer version: Oracle 21c (21.3)
  • Industry Models:
  • Create Template Subfolder function is added in the Industry Model Plot Explorer.
  • When you press F5 or click Refresh in Map 3D, changes to forms or views definition made in Infrastructure Administrators are now reflected in Map 3D.
  • The order of layer groups is now saved correctly in the display model.
  • Creating a new Feature from Geometry can now populate the Z attribute value for the point features.
  • For Industry Model based on SQLite, feature labels can now be inserted in the correct position.
  • In Infrastructure Administrator, ORA-13346 errors from importing the industry model oracle dmp to Oracle 19c can now be fixed through 1-Click-Maintenance.
  • In Infrastructure Administrator, running some intersection no longer stops before completion.
  • FDO ArcGIS:
  • For connections whose underlying relational database management system is SQL Server, a new option “Windows Authentication” is provided in the Login dialog box.
  • ArcSDE Enterprise connection no longer breaks when reopening a drawing with FDO ArcGIS connection to ArcSDE Enterprise.
  • Label:
  • Labels with ghosting color frame are displayed correctly in layout view.
  • Feature labels no longer disappear when rotating the North Arrow or using the DVIEW command.
  • MAPTOACAD:
  • FDO point symbols can be exported in correct scale when using MAPTOACAD with DWT.
  • When a drawing with FDO layer stylization uses a symbol that's also inserted as a general block, exporting data using MAPTOACAD retains the layer name.
  • eTransmit: Creating an eTransmit package for some drawings no longer causes AutoCAD Map 3D to crash.
  • FDO WFS: Connecting to some WFS servers no longer causes the “400 Bad Request” error.
  • FDO SQL Server: Moving a label linked to an SQL Server view and then saving the drawing can now be reopened without encountering a crash.
  • FDO WMTS: Connection issues for some WMTS URLs have been fixed.
  • FDO WMS: WMS from the French Government is now readable with AutoCAD Map 3D.
  • FDO PostgreSQL: New Feature from Geometry now works correctly.
  • Commands: MAPTRIM command now works and can trim the 2D polyline successfully.
  • Import and Export: Drawings now keep the projection code after using MAPIMPORTFDO from Oracle with spatial filter.
  • Feature Tooltips: Hyperlinks with https in the feature tooltips are now accessible.
  • Coordinate System: A Russian string in CSD file no longer creates an empty category list in the coordinate system library.
