Objectives

Participants to gain a basic understanding of FDO To be able to basic FDO connections in AutoCAD Map 3D 2010 To be able to filter FDO feature sources To be able to stylize FDO feature sources

Agenda

Discuss FDO What it is Where it came from What it means to us Hands on Examples of working with

AutoCAD Map 3D 2010 to connect and manage FDO feature sources

Tell us who you are

Name What do you do Experience with Autodesk products Why you’re here

What is FDO?

The FDO Standard is maintained at OSGeo

Where did FDO come from?

Autodesk needed a technology that could provide a way to access many different geospatial data sources through a common mechanism.

Requirements object-based feature model Supports the OGC Simple Feature specification geometry types Defines a logical model that maps to commonly used physical

implementations Each data source has its corresponding FDO provider. Allow clients to determine specific capabilities of a particular

provider Allows new commands and schema additions to be easily added

over time

AutoCAD Map 3D

AutoCAD Map 3D uses FDO technology to create a hybrid environment with geospatial features and drawing objects

There are 3 main types of feature sources: File-based raster and vector (SHP, SDF, DEM, SID, ECW,etc) Database vector and ODBC (Oracle, Access) OpenGIS raster and vector (WMS, WFS)

Feature sources render very rapidly

Feature Source – Raster (Mr Sid)

Feature Source – Raster (DEM)

Feature Source – Vector (Shape)

Feature Source – ODBC (Access)

Feature Layers

Process Connect to a feature source Can be a single file or folder Give it a name Adjust settings (coordinates)Feature source is added to Map Explorer Add to MapFeature layer is now added to Display Manager.

Map Overview

Hands-On Exercise – Connect to a Feature Source

Open redding.dwg Ensure Display Manager is selected in the Task Pane (If task pane is not up, type mapwspace) Click Data>Connect to Data Click Add SDF Connection Give it a name – SDF_Parcel For source file, select parcels.sdf In the Add Data to map area: Ensure parcels schema is selected Note coordinate system is CA-I Click Add to Map

Hands-On Exercise – Connect to a Feature Source

Add another SDF connection Name – SDF_ROADS Source – Roads.sdf

Under Add Data to Map Ensure Roads Schema is selected Click Add to Map

Add Shape Connection Name – SHP_Waterlines Source – waterlines.shp Click Connect

Under Add Data to Map area Ensure waterlines schema is seleected Click Add to Map

Close Data Connect Window

Hands-On Exercise – Connect to a Feature Source

In the Display Manager, select the waterlines layer. Click the Table button (at top of Task Pane) In the Data table dialog box, select any record – note the map zooms to the

objects selected in the Data Table.

Hands-On Exercise – Add Point Data (ODBC)

First, we need to serve a database as an ODBC connection

In Windows, clisck Start>Run Enter ODBCAD32 Click OK

In the ODBC Data Source Administrator Dialog box, clixk System DSN Click the Add button In the Create New Data Source dialog box, under Name, select Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb) Click Finish

In the ODBC Microsoft Access Setup dialog box, for Data Source Name, enter REDDING_ODBC Click Select

Browse to redding_hydrants.mdb Click OK

Click OK to complete the ODBC setup

Hands-On Exercise – Add Point Data (ODBC)

The next step is to add ODBC Data to the Drawing as a feature source Use the same process to Connect to Data and Add ODBC Connection Name – ODBC_Hydrants Source Type – Data Source Name (DSN) Redding_ODBC Click Connect

Click Login Under the Add Data to Map: Click Edit Coordinate Systems tab Click the Default Spatial context Click Edit

In Select Coordinates System dialog box Category – Lat Longs Coord System – LL, No Datum, Latitude-Longitude; Degrees -180 to +180 Click OK

Hands-On Exercise – Add Point Data (ODBC)

Under Add Data to Map For X, select LON For Y, select LAT For Z, select <none>

Click Add to Map Close the Data Connect Box

Filtering Data Sources

By Attribute STNAME = Brittany Drive

By Location

Hands-On Exercise – Query Features on Connect

Use an Attribute Filter Connect to SDF feature source Name – SDF_PARCELS_BRITTANY_DRIVE Source – parcels.sdf Click connect Under Schema, ensure Parcels are Checked Click the down arrow next to Add to Map Select Add to Map with Query In the Create Query dialog box, click Property > STNAME Click the Equal To button

Hands-On Exercise – Query Features on Connect

Click Get Values Under Select a Property to Retrieve Its Values, select STNAME Under Filter the List of Values, enter: BR Click the green arrow button Click Brittany Dr Click Insert Value In the Create Query dialog box, click OK

To see the filtered parcel feature source, turn the other feature sources off in the Display Manager

Hands-On Exercise – Use a Spatial Feature with a SHP

Create a new data connection Name – SHP_VALVES_BRITTANY_DRIVE Source – valves.shp Click Connect Under Schema, ensure Valevs are checked Click Add to Map with Query In the Create Query dialog box, click Locate on Map>Inside

Rectangle Create a rectangle around the filtered parcels In the Create Query dialog box, click OK Close the Data Connect window

Valves are filtered within the rectangle

Hands-On Exercise – Stylize the Features

Turn on all of the feature layers At top of Task Pane, click Groups and select Draw Order Drag roads above parcels, and hydrants above roads In the Display Manager, select the Hydrants layer and click the

Style button Under Scale ranges for Layer, set the To scale to 5000 In the Style editor pane, click the Style Browse button In the Style Point dialog, click the Symbol browse button Browse to, and select water-hydrant.dwg Click on the WATER symbol Click OK

Hands-On Exercise - Stylizing

Add themes and styles to feature layers

Tell us how we did
