    <title>topic Floor Plans Feature Classes in Data Management Questions</title>
    <link>https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/floor-plans-feature-classes/m-p/607265#M34192</link>
    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;I am not sure where to post this question; I have many floor plans for a campus; some are for single story buildings, others are for multi-story buildings. The floor plans are in DWG format (AutoCAD) and are already georeferenced and scaled to match the building polygons in our Geodatabase. I know how to bring the data into our Geodatabase using the CAD Import Tools no problem; &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;I do not have CityEngine, but plan on implementing it in the near future. What I do have is ArcGIS 10.2.1 Desktop Advanced, ArcGIS for Server Enterprise, SQL Server 2008 R2, and I built a Map Viewer using Flex. &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; The Floor Plans CAD data includes rooms, doors, windows, walls, and room number/id annotation.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; my questions are:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; 1) How do you recommend I organize Floor Plan Feature Classes in a SQL Server Enterprise Geodatabase? is there a floor plan GIS data model or schema available?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; 2) For Multi-Story Buildings, would you recommend separating each Floor into its own Feature Class? for example, Bldg_A_1st_Floor; Bldg_A_2nd_Floor?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; 3) What attributes would you store for each floor?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; 4) Without CityEngine, how would you recommend working with Floor Plan Feature Classes?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; Any other suggestions on your experiences with Floor Plans are welcome.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
