Features and Functionality
Vicinity GIS provides users with a set of CAD Models that represent Federal, State, and local streets, highways, and roads in New Mexico. Each CAD Model is geo-referenced to its respective NAD83 State Plane coordinate system, ensuring accurate placement within your project. The plugin supports both U.S. Survey feet and meters, making it versatile for users in different regions. The CAD Models are in "dwg" format, compatible with all Autodesk product categories, making them easy to integrate into your Revit projects.
One of the standout features of Vicinity GIS is the ability to x-reference the CAD Models into your project design models and x-clip them to show only the specific areas you need. This helps streamline your workflow and focus on relevant information. The models include polylines, text, and hatch entities, organized by Layer, Color, Line Weight, and Style for easy customization. Users can isolate, select, and search for specific features using standard Autodesk AutoCAD commands like "Qselect" and "Find" for text entities.

Governmental Administrative Divisions
Another notable aspect of Vicinity GIS is the inclusion of Governmental Administrative divisions such as State, Province, County/Parish, and City. These divisions are represented by hatched areas within the CAD Models, making them easily distinguishable and searchable. This feature is particularly useful for users who need to work with specific administrative boundaries in their projects. It adds an extra layer of detail and context to your design, helping you make more informed decisions.
