Spatial Manager™ for AutoCAD is a powerful AutoCAD plug-in designed for AutoCAD users who need to import, export, transform and manage spatial data in a simple, fast and inexpensive way, which includes many functionalities not seen so far in AutoCAD
It comes in a lightweight application that runs inside AutoCAD and allows the user to import and export geospatial data between AutoCAD drawings and geospatial files, data servers or data stores, display background maps, manage alphanumeric data and data tables, create terrain models and contours, search for locations, transform coordinate systems, and many more geospatial functionalities
Key features
Import data

Imports spatial data, into new or existing AutoCAD drawings, as AutoCAD objects and Extended Entity Data (EED/XDATA)
Export data

Export objects from AutoCAD to spatial files or databases, and saves their Extended Entity Data (EED/XDATA) as alphanumeric data tables
Coordinates transformation Updated V9

Calculate geometric transformations of the objects in the import and export processes in AutoCAD
Background maps Updated V9

Choose in AutoCAD from among a lot of dynamic Backgrounds Maps from providers such as Google Maps, OpenStreetMap, Bing, MapBox, Ordnance Survey, etc., configure your own maps from TMS, WMS or WMTS servers or connect to Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) type sources
Google Earth publication

Export all or part of the objects in the visible Layers from AutoCAD and their data to a KML or KMZ file
Thematic maps

Visualize objects coloring them depending on their field values in AutoCAD
Data management

Manage the alphanumeric data attached to the objects, design and edit the structure which will be used to store the data in AutoCAD
Data grid

The Data Grid palette in AutoCAD allows you to view, edit, etc. the objects data for any table in the drawing. You can also select objects from the Data Grid, export the data from the tables and more
Fields calculator

Calculate in AutoCAD simple or complex expressions using operators and functions that can be applied to field values in a table and/or to constant values
Spatial analysis

Perform spatial analysis operations in AutoCAD over the objects in the drawing generating new objects from such analysis
Drawing tools New V9

Drawing tools for AutoCAD make your life easier by allowing you to perform actions directly on the drawing
Image tools New V9
