The following steps summarize creating a web layout and provide links to more information.

To build a web layout

  1. Start Autodesk Infrastructure Studio and connect to a site.

    For more information, see Starting the Application and Connecting to a Site.

  2. Determine the coordinate system to use for your web layout. For more information, see Setting the Coordinate System for Your Map.
  3. Load or connect to data resources, making them available in the Site Explorer.

    For more information, see Making Data Available to Autodesk Infrastructure Studio.

  4. Load raster images, making them available in the Site Explorer.

    For more information, see Loading Raster Files.

  5. Create symbol library resources to use in point layers.

    For more information about working with symbols, see Working With Symbols.

  6. Define layers to organize your data and customize the display.

    For more information about working with layers to organize and present data, see Working with Layers.

  7. Define a map by adding layers.

    For more information about building a map, see Working with Maps.

    You can also create a map with associated layers in one step by loading an AutoCAD Map 3D drawing with Display Manager elements defined.

  8. Define print layouts.

    For more information about print layouts, see Working with Print Layouts.

  9. Create the web layout.
