This tool is particularly useful for topographic mapping, civil engineering, and GIS applications, where accurate 3D elevation data is required for analysis and design. GeoTool -> Export Tools -> Export Tools -> Import-read ARC ASCII DEM files Key Features Include: Benefits: With GT_READDEM, users can directly integrate DEM-based elevation models into their CAD environment, streamlining terrain analysis and 3D visualization workflows.

Light-Weight to Heavy-Weight: GT_CONVERTPOLY HEAVY – GeoTools Command

Summary The GT_CONVERTPOLY_HEAVY command in GeoTools allows users to convert light-weight polylines into heavy-weight polylines, enabling the storage of additional properties such as line width and extended entity data. This is particularly useful in cartography, drafting, and engineering designs where polyline width and additional data attributes are required. GeoTool -> Conversion Tools -> Conversion Tools -> Light-Weight to Heavy-Weight Key Features Include: Benefits: With GT_CONVERTPOLY_HEAVY, users can upgrade their polylines to support additional properties, enhancing visual representation and design accuracy in CAD drawings.

Heavy-Weight to Light-Weight: GT_CONVERTPOLY LIGHT – GeoTools Command

Summary The GT_CONVERTPOLY_LIGHT command in GeoTools allows users to convert heavy-weight polylines (2D polylines with width and additional data) into light-weight polylines (optimized 2D polylines with reduced data size). This command is particularly useful for improving drawing performance, reducing file size, and ensuring compatibility with various CAD operations that require simpler polyline structures. GeoTool -> Conversion Tools -> Conversion Tools -> Heavy-Weight to Light-Weight Key Features Include: Benefits: With GT_CONVERTPOLY_LIGHT, users can optimize their polylines for efficiency, enhancing workflow performance and making large CAD drawings easier to manage

Attributes to Xdata: GT_ATT2XD – GeoTools Command

Summary The GT_ATT2XD command in GeoTools allows users to convert block attributes into extended entity data (XData) in a single operation, streamlining attribute management in BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander. GeoTool -> Conversion Tools -> Conversion Tools -> Attributes to Xdata Attributes to Xdata: GT_ATT2XD – GeoTools Command Key Features Include: Benefits: This tool is essential for CAD professionals handling metadata-rich blocks, ensuring seamless attribute-to-XData conversion for better data organization and retrieval.

Assign Contour Elevations (Manually) from Text Objects: GT_ASS_EL_TEXT – GeoTools Command

Summary The GT_ASS_EL_TEXT command in GeoTools is an intelligent elevation assignment tool that allows users to manually assign elevations to contour polylines using existing text labels. Unlike GT_ASS_EL, which assigns elevations automatically based on a reference contour and interval, this command enables users to select a contour and a corresponding text object to define its elevation, ensuring precise and user-controlled elevation mapping. GeoTool -> Conversion Tools -> Conversion Tools -> Assign contour elevations (manually) from text objects Assign Contour Elevations (Manually) from Text Objects: GT_ASS_EL_TEXT – GeoTools Command Key Features Include: Benefits: With GT_ASS_EL_TEXT, users can manually map contour elevations from text objects, ensuring greater flexibility and accuracy in 3D topographic modeling.
