About DXF
DXF (Drawing Exchange Format) is an Autodesk format for exchanging drawing data between AutoCAD and other CAD applications. It is widely used in architecture, engineering, and construction, and is the standard export format from many survey and CAD tools.
You might convert from DXF when you need to bring CAD geometry into a GIS for spatial analysis, when you want to display building footprints or survey linework on a web map, or when you need to assign a coordinate reference system to geometry drawn in an arbitrary CAD coordinate space.
Frequently asked questions
Does DXF store a coordinate reference system?
No — DXF files do not natively store CRS information. Coordinates are in the drawing's internal unit system. If you know the intended CRS, use the Assign CRS tool after conversion to correctly geo-reference the output.
What DXF geometry types are supported?
Lines, polylines, arcs, circles, and polygon boundaries are all converted. Text entities and blocks are not included in the vector output. Hatching patterns are not preserved.
Can I filter by DXF layer after conversion?
DXF layer names are stored as a feature property in the output, allowing you to filter features by layer in QGIS or other GIS software after conversion.
