Direct geocoding is the process of converting postal addresses or place names into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) that can be placed accurately within a drawing.
Spatial Manager™ for BricsCAD automates this by allowing users to import address data from CSV files or other sources, then queries coordinate databases or geocoding services to locate each address on the map.
The resulting points are inserted into the drawing with their exact positions and carry the original address data as attributes.
Obtain postal addresses from objects in the drawing
Get data like street, municipality, postal code, etc. and add it to existing objects
Spatial Manager™ for BricsCAD include functions to geo-locate in your drawing postal addresses, streets, neighborhoods or other geographical objects
