Powercadd (PC9) to geodatabase conversion

Question

I'm looking for someone that knows of a way to convert PowerCADD9 files to a geodatabase. We have over 4.5k buildings in a PC9 file format with information that I'm trying to make available to our organization.

Is there a simple way to convert these files into a geodatabase?

Any direction is appreciated!

Hello @HeatherDavis,

Unfortunately, I was unable to find anything from the Esri side, FME in particular, that would assist you. I think it might be best to search from the PowerCADD side as mentioned in this AutoCAD Forum > Converting .PC9 files to .DWG.
