To Use Projects

Use projects to process measurements that are performed in one area of interest to determine specific real-world objects. Each project can use its own field code list that maps the field codes to the database feature classes. A project consists of one or more calculation projects. Also, if you work with different field code lists, you must create a project for each field code list. For example, if you process data from different contractors that use different field codes, you create a project for each contractor.

To start the Project Manager

1. In the AutoCAD Map 3D Maintenance workspace, do one of the following:
   • Connect to an enterprise industry model project that contains the Survey model.
   • Open an industry model drawing that contains the Survey module.

   Your System Administrator adds the Survey module to a project or industry model drawing in Infrastructure Administrator .

   Click Insert tab > Survey panel > Survey.

2. Click Project Manage.
3. In the Manage Projects dialog box, select a project group, and edit the project settings.
