Why use Autodesk MapGuide technology with AutoCAD Map 3D?
When used together, AutoCAD Map 3D and Autodesk MapGuide Enterprise enable organizations to use data from initial design to web deployment more effectively—without translation or data loss. The result? A powerful foundation for meeting core geospatial needs. Work done in AutoCAD Map 3D is directly compatible with Autodesk MapGuide because of shared common data access technology (FDO). When you build a map in AutoCAD Map 3D, you can access and use information stored in different formats (for example, ESRI ArcSDE and SHP, Oracle format) via direct FDO connectivity. Therefore the same map with the same stylization is instantly available online to web users when published to Autodesk MapGuide Enterprise. So regardless of whether the data consists of files from your desktop or from a database, Autodesk MapGuide Enterpirse can quickly make the data available via the web. You can also maximize the full value of information created in AutoCAD Map 3D by easily building custom applications with
