Hi
In the ArcMap fabric we had a workflow that converted survey CAD linework into a simple line feature class (for the ease of starting a edit session to select all-> copy the lines) that we would copy-paste into the parcel construction dialog. This would maintain the surveyed/recorded COGO values of the lines and perpetuate them in the fabric record data. Is there a similar workflow to this in Pro? Ideally, it would be to skip the conversion to feature class and just use the CAD linework -> georeference it -> copy-lines-to and preserve the measurements. Also, the CAD data are all drawn in local coordinates.
If I copy-lines-to the CAD lines at the local coordinates that they were drawn then update the COGO, the metes and bounds are exactly as they were entered (yay!)...but...the big problem is when I add CAD lines to Pro, georeference it to my desired area, copy-lines-to to the plan, then update the COGO, there are slight changes in the metes and bounds record measurements and all is lost (recorded measurement accuracy anyway). I'm I able to preserve these with any other workflow?
Any help would be great.
Thanks!
Mike

Try this:
If you haven't used Transform before, it's basically georeferencing but for vector data. But it would only alter the geometry, not the attributes, such as your COGO.
