Import Raster Data from Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS Dialog Box

If an ArcGIS dataset has associated raster data, you can insert it into a drawing using the Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS. Use the Import Raster Data from Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS dialog box to specify a folder for the downloaded raster data and to specify the resolution of the imported raster data.

An image with elevation data can be imported as imagery or a surface can be created from it, but an image without elevation data can only be imported as imagery. When you select raster data to import, the Import Raster Data from Autodesk Connector for ArcGIS dialog box will be displayed so you can specify parameters.

You can import the same raster data multiple times into a drawing so that you can specify different resolution settings and areas of interest.

Note: ArcGIS raster data can't be saved back to ArcGIS.
Raster Data Folder
Specifies the folder for the imported raster data. When you import raster data from ArcGIS into a drawing, the raster file is also saved to this location.
Tip: If the drawing will be uploaded to Autodesk Docs, using the default Raster Data Folder may result in the path being too long for Desktop Connector, which will result in the raster data not being loaded correctly into the drawing. To work around this issue, specify a shorter path for the Raster Data Folder. For example, set it to be the same folder as that in which the current drawing is located.
Raster Data Resolution
Specifies the resolution for the imported raster data. If the selected resolution is higher than what is available for the raster data, the source resolution will be used.
