From CAD to GIS: where are we?
Loïc Bartoletti, Jacky Volpes

From CAD to GIS: where are we?

CAD and GIS are often considered as contradictory. However, we are regularly asked to help to perform a transition from CAD to GIS.

We would like to share with you an overview of situations where this transition succeeded. For this, we will go through issues and solutions we provided.

We will talk about the differences and similarities between those two worlds.
We will review the existing file formats.
We will make a list of available opensource tools that can facilitate this transition: gdal, QGIS and its plugins.
We will show that almost anything needed can be realized within QGIS today.
Finally, we will introduce a verification tool that can validate data in order to facilitate their integration: QompliGIS.

Not only will we talk about theory, but we will also give each case a concrete example of the work done for it, since several years.
