<DIV><SPAN class=263164921-14072010><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Does anyone have
experience converting a CAD drawing into a geodatabase, and maintaining
attribute information across platforms? If the intended product is to
convert infrastructure information of a parcel, collected by traditional
survey, into a GIS inventory of that parcel's infrastructure, is there a good
way to set up the surveyor's data collection such that the data they provide
will be easily incorporated into a geodatabase, or does this process involve a
lot of manual data entry of attributes, to assign all the CAD lines, polygons,
and points with the appropriate "information" associated with each feature, like
I fear it might?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
