To export DWG data to ESRI ArcSDE:
1 Query the data you want from the DWG drawing into your map.
2
Connect to the ESRI ArcSDE data store (page 316) to which you want to
move the data.
3 Before moving drawing data to ESRI ArcSDE, do the following to your
DWG drawing objects:
■
Assign a coordinate system (page 142). This lets you position your data
accurately in a real-world geographic location and align imported
survey or GPS point data. Once you assign a coordinate system, you
can convert to a different system when you export.
■
Clean up any geometry errors (page 765). Use the AutoCAD Map 3D
cleanup tools to correct any errors introduced during drafting,
digitizing, or converting the data.
4 In the Tool-based Ribbon Workspace, click Output tab ➤ Map Data
Transfer panel ➤ To FDO Connection.
5 In the dialog box that appears, choose the data source for the export and
click OK.
6 On the Selection tab of the Map Export dialog box (page 1723), specify
which objects to export.
This tab determines how items are selected for export, and not how they
are organized in their exported form. You specify how to organize the
exported material on the Feature Class tab.
7 On the Feature Class tab, specify which object properties and attributes
to export to feature class attributes. Note that you cannot create or modify
ArcSDE schemas. You can only map object properties and attributes to
existing feature class attributes.
