ArcGIS for AutoCAD is a free application that allows CAD users to visualize and query GIS data in AutoCAD without conversion. As a CAD user, you can work directly with ArcGIS map services to add full GIS context to your AutoCAD session.

ArcGIS for AutoCAD leverages the cartographic and computing power of ArcGIS without the need for special data connections.

With ArcGIS for AutoCAD, you can

• View live GIS maps and display GIS symbology of all underlying GIS data structures in CAD.
• Include GIS analysis results in your CAD designs.
• Include GIS basemaps in your CAD products.
• Define the coordinate system within AutoCAD to automatically project maps on-the-fly without transforming CAD drawings or converting GIS data.
