Prev Top Next More

Using the Evaluation feature, you can create legends using data stored in a floor plan drawing. The Evaluation feature allows you to display a legend outlining a data point in the drawing based on a selected criteria in VertiGIS FM.

The Evaluations selection is made in the CAD Options section. It is accessed when you edit the floor with the floor plan drawing and expand the CAD Options tab.

Evaluations can also be used with BIM files when viewed on the floor details page. For more information, refer to IFC.
