Question 1

What information is needed to begin a survey CAD drafting project?

Accepted Answer

The essentials are the survey data you want drawn (coordinates, points, sketches, or prior drawings), your drafting standards or template where available, and written instructions describing the required deliverables. We review everything and confirm scope before production starts.

Question 2

Can GeoDrafts work with our existing CAD standards and templates?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Layer structures, naming conventions, title blocks, symbol libraries, and plot styles you supply are applied to the deliverables exactly as agreed — the drawings should look like they came from your own production team.

Question 3

Which CAD and GIS file formats can you support?

Accepted Answer

For CAD: DWG, DXF, and PDF as standard, with DGN available on request. For GIS: Shapefile, GeoPackage, GeoJSON, KML/KMZ, and CSV. Other formats can be discussed as part of the project scope.

Question 4

Can you convert survey drawings into GIS datasets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. CAD-to-GIS conversion is a core capability — supplied drawings are converted into structured GIS features with organized attributes, following the layer schema and coordinate specifications you provide.

Question 5

Can you support recurring drafting requirements?

Accepted Answer

Yes, subject to actual capacity. Many teams need steady production support alongside their own staff; we discuss expected volumes, scheduling, and scope arrangements before starting recurring work.

Question 6

How are project scope, revisions, and delivery schedules agreed?

Accepted Answer

In writing, before production begins. Each project confirmation defines the deliverables, assumptions, revision expectations, and delivery schedule so both sides share the same picture of what will be produced.

Question 7

Does GeoDrafts conduct physical land surveys?

Accepted Answer

No. GeoDrafts is a drafting and GIS production partner. Field surveying, licensed surveying, boundary determination, certification, and professional sign-off are separate responsibilities that remain with the licensed professionals you engage.

Question 8

How can we share project files securely?

Accepted Answer

Project files are exchanged through agreed secure file-sharing arrangements, and client materials are handled under agreed confidentiality terms. Share a secure link with your inquiry or ask us about the current preferred transfer method.
