Core Capabilities

Key Features

Our CAD-to-GIS Conversion Tool offers a comprehensive set of features to streamline your workflow.

Automated Conversion

Converts CAD files (DXF) into GIS-compatible formats like Shapefile and GeoJSON with minimal manual intervention.

Layer & Attribute Mapping

Preserves CAD layers, blocks, and metadata, mapping them accurately to GIS attributes.

Coordinate System Transformation

Ensures CAD data aligns perfectly with common national spatial reference systems.

Topology Validation

Checks for gaps, overlaps, and inconsistencies in polygons/lines. Can also create polygons from line layers.

Batch Processing

Handles multiple CAD layers simultaneously, saving significant time on large projects.

National Systems Integration

Converted data can be seamlessly integrated into national housing and infrastructure information systems.

Customizable Workflows

Create and save custom conversion workflows for repeated tasks and batch operations.

API Access

Integrate conversion capabilities directly into your existing software with our robust API (Enterprise plan).

Data Validation

Ensure data integrity with comprehensive validation tools that identify and fix common issues.
