The Airports are exported as blocks into CAD, as already mentioned initially. This means it is required to draw and save the blocks in the header.

Therefore open the header in the CAD program and create four blocks each with a plane as symbol in the respective color of the airport category. The blocks are named adequately to GIS:

Airports representation in GIS

Airports representation in GIS

 

Block for Airport - International

Block for Airport - International

Block for Airport - Military

Block for Airport - Military

 

The naming corresponds to the name from the feature class field Description.

Block for Airport - Municipal

Block for Airport - Municipal

 

Task

HeaderFileName

The file Header_SampleProject.dxf is given as header.

TaskName

The task name remains on the designation Airports.

FeatureClassName

Feature class name is gaz.

DxfEntity
The task Airports was automatically created as INSERT. This is the correct type for a CAD block and must be therefore not adjusted any more.

Properties

Layer

The layer is filled with the value Airports.

Block Name

The block name defines the name of the block that is to be used in the header. This can be either defined or can be selected from a field. Since in this example different block are inserted as airport, the block name is selected from a field, namely the field DESCRIPT. The value of the block name must be specified as follows: FIELD:DESCRIPT:

Rotation

The field Rotation was created automatically. It is however not relevant in this case, since a rotation is defined on the airport symbols. The value can thus be removed.

 

FeatureQueryFilter
On the layer Airports is defined a query for the category Airport. This is also rendered in the CAD Export Configuration and is: "CATEGORY" = 'Airport'

Please note that the Definition Queries are not considered for the automatic generation of the configuration. These have to be always adjusted manually.
