Overview of Exporting Attribute Data

You can export attribute data in the following ways:

■ From the Data Table: Attribute data for geospatial features appears in the

Data Table. You can export all or some of this data to a comma-separated

file, which you can then print from a supporting application.

■ From the Data View: Data you linked to drawing objects from an external

source appears in the Data View. You can print some or all of this data, or

you can copy and paste it into another application.

■ From the Metadata Viewer: Metadata is is structured information that

describes the content, quality, condition, and other characteristics of data.

In AutoCAD Map 3D, you can examine this data in the Metadata Viewer.

You can share metadata by exporting it from the Metadata Viewer.

■ As a report: You can query objects in attached drawings to retrieve object

data and properties that match your criteria. You define a template to

specify which of that information to include in the resulting report, which

is written out to a comma-separated file.
