Hi Walt, though I do no have a lot of experience with CAD imports and no idea of the idea behind CAD in general, but I learnt over the time, that doesn't make much sense to try to make good data out of shitty data, but to better try to convince those non-geo CAD-users to invest some time in finding the proper export settings for their data. I at least received already a good amount of AutoCAD files that went into QGIS super-smooth without any problem, while from others it was crap like yours.
So the solution is the person behind the CAD-program, and rather not to find sophisticated import strategies. Just my 2 cents Bernd Am 03.02.21 um 20:10 schrieb Walt Ludwick:
I've received a 3D AutoCAD file from an architect that i managed to convert into 2D .dxf format and import into my QGIS project, but it is out-of-scale and out-of-place, so i guess i need to add some georeferencing coordinates to the file. This should be easy enough, since it's an accurate representation of a building that's already in the project -with an additional wing tacked on- so i'm thinking i could just use a few corners of that existing buildings as ground control points, and map them to the corresponding corners on this .dxf model, then maybe all other co-ordinates could be automatically generated by some tool, if i could just find the right one for the job. Is there in fact any such easy way to do this thing? _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
