FME is ETL (extract, transform, load) software from Safe Software, the standard tool for moving data between CAD, GIS, and enterprise systems. If you've ever needed to translate DWG files to GIS or synchronize AutoCAD data with a database, FME is almost certainly the right answer.
CAD Masters has been using FME since 2009 and has FME Certified Professionals on staff. We build FME workspaces that run as scheduled jobs, event-triggered processes, or on-demand conversions, whichever fits your workflow. Common use cases:
DWG ↔ GIS Conversion: Convert drawing geometry and attributes to GIS features, or build AutoCAD drawings from GIS data, preserving structure in both directions.
Enterprise System Synchronization: Keep GIS in sync with asset management systems like Maximo and SAP without manual data entry or brittle one-off scripts.
Telemetry Data Integration: Push data from field sensors and telemetry systems into GIS automatically, maintaining a current picture of your infrastructure.
Cross-System Reporting: Pull data from multiple disconnected systems and produce consolidated reports, without rebuilding your database schema.
Civil 3D to GIS: Extract corridor, pipe network, and surface data from Civil 3D models and load them into your GIS as proper feature classes.
Multi-Format Export: Deliver GIS data in whatever format your stakeholders need: KML, Shapefile, CSV, Google Sheets, Excel, and more.
