The new “Parse DXF style” option is available in the file loader. When enabled, the Aether platform automatically assigns the appropriate style to each layer based on the layer style in the source file.

“Parse DXF style” automates the difficult manual task of making an uploaded DXF file match its original style and format.

Now, complex and color-coded design files from external solutions such as CAD, GIS, or design software are Drag & Drop, saving significant time and effort for the user.

Use case examples:

• Construction: Color-coded underground utility surveys will automatically match the company’s style standards
• Engineering: Complex civil design files can be leveraged by multiple stakeholders without manual work
  
• Mining: Large scale, long range mine plans can be easily integrated for reference against all surveys
