The GeoTag add-on is a specialized extension designed for Civil 3D, offering a unique capability for placing georeferenced tags, also known as blocks, within a georeferenced drawing. During the guided placement process, users input particular attribute data, such as text and hyperlinks, during block insertion. Most importantly, the add-on automatically sends the attributes of the newly placed block as well as the geolocation information to the AR Mavericks online cloud server. In essence, the GeoTag add-on enhances Civil 3D by streamlining the placement of georeferenced tags, and its integration with the AR Mavericks online cloud server via API ensures a smooth transfer of data for further processing or analysis.

BENEFITS
The AR Mavericks GeoTag project successfully delivered an integrated solution for AutoCAD users to enhance their design and mapping projects.
The project’s feature for scaling and rotation of custom tags allows users to manipulate the orientation and size of tags as needed.
This project simplified the process of inserting custom tags within AutoCAD models and retrieving precise geographic coordinates.
Users can now gain a more comprehensive understanding of their designs by incorporating geographic context.
