In the
Open InfraWorks Model dialog box, specify an
InfraWorks model to open. You can select a local
InfraWorks model by selecting an SQLITE file, or you can select an IMX file that was exported from
InfraWorks.
Note: You can open SQLITE models to bring
InfraWorks bridges into
Civil 3D, but bridges that are brought into
Civil 3D from an SQLITE model cannot be updated using the
InfraWorks Dataset Manager dialog box.
Review the information under
Coordinate System, and click
Set a Coordinate System if you need to specify or change the coordinate system of the drawing.
Autodesk Civil 3D must have a coordinate system specified in order to bring in
InfraWorks data.
If you selected an
InfraWorks SQLITE file in step 2, you can use one of the following
Selection Area options:
Click
Extents of InfraWorks Model to open the entire model.
Click
Area of Interest and then click
Select Area to select an area. This option turns on the display of online map data in your drawing and enables you to select an area from the map. When you select an area of the map, the rectangle that forms the selection window acts as a boundary for the surfaces that will be brought into
Autodesk Civil 3D. Other objects, such as roads, that are inside or that cross the selection window will be brought into
Autodesk Civil 3D in full.
Tip: Using the
Area of Interest option to limit the area that is imported may result in a faster processing speed for the command.
Specify the
object settings file to use by selecting the folder in which it is located and selecting the file to use.
Pre-defined object settings files are provided in the following folders:
Refine the selection set of objects by clicking
Refine Selection Set. Use the
Refine Selection Set dialog box to refine the object selection and click OK.
