Vectorworks’ Geographic Information System (GIS) features enable the geolocation of your projects, whereby geolocation aligns the file's internal origin with the project's actual location on the Earth.

Continuing on from our popular ‘GIS Workflows Using Publicly Accessible Data’, Part 2 will revisit key concepts from Part 1 and then dive into more practical, hands-on content. We’ll explore locating virtual projects, integrating GIS and survey data, and tackling workflow challenges. We will finish with an extended live Q&A with our hosts, Troy Diamond, Technical Support Specialist, RAIA, and Ben Beaumont, Senior Manager of Australian Customer Success.
