Nearly all CAD applications can export map data to the digital exchange format ( DXF ) and , in the case of Microstation , Design ( DGN ) files . GIS applications can often import digital data directly from the CAD package ' s native format . DXF files can be read directly by the GIS applications being recommended for Indian River County. These files can remain in DXF format or converted to a GIS format . Indian River County should establish a formal protocol that requires the delivery of electronic drawings files by development , engineering , and survey firms as a compliment to paper maps . Subsequently, new and proposed development data may be incorporated into Indian River County ' s GIS . Most regional civil engineering and land development firms create subdivision plats and construction drawings in GIS-supported CAD formats fully capable of meeting this requirement.
