The city of Aurora now requires that all plans submitted for city review and approval must adhere to new CAD Data Submittal Standards.

These standards will require that certain infrastructure information in the plan sets be contained on specific CAD layers. This will enable the city to import the data into the city’s GIS data layers rather than having to recreate the layers manually.

Ultimately, the updated GIS layers will feed additional, more accurate information into Aurora Open Data, which has nearly 160 current data sets for the public to access and download (such as survey control).

Explore Aurora Open Data at https://data-auroraco.opendata.arcgis.com/, which includes orthophoto images specifically created for AutoCAD users.
