AutoCAD Map 3D toolset has sample symbols for general-purpose use, such as points of interest, transportation, and local government.
Like the industry symbols, general-purpose symbols are usable as-is, or as a basis for developing new symbols.
Using symbols can help promote standardization and consistency in your organization, and can improve communication by using familiar symbology.
The symbols come in two formats:
- Dynamic block versions (Map - Points of Interest.DWG) are in dynamic block format so you can scale and rotate them easily. You can control outline and fill colors separately in the
Style Editor. The symbols are black by default when viewed in the DWG.
These general-use symbols are examples from Map - Points of Interest.dwg.
- Bitmap versions in
