Parameter description

parameter name Description Parameter Type
Select File Enter the path information of the data to be imported String
Charset Select the character set type for the file to be imported, default is ASCII. Charset
Result Datasource Specify the datasource where the result dataset is stored Datasource
Result Dataset Specify the name of the result dataset String
Encode Type Specify the encoding type of the dataset to be generated EncodeType
Import Mode Set the import mode when a dataset with the same name exists. ImportMode
Dataset Type Select the type of dataset after import. Supports importing as CAD dataset or simple dataset, default is simple dataset. Boolean
Create Spatial Index Set whether to create a spatial index for the imported dataset, default is checked. If checked, a spatial index will be created for the dataset according to the supported index types, which can improve the efficiency of spatial queries and access to data. Boolean
Unit object is imported as the point object Set whether to import unit objects as point objects, default is unchecked. If checked, the position of unit objects will be replaced by point objects. Boolean
Unite Layers Set whether to merge layers after import, default is unchecked. If checked, all CAD layers of the same type will be merged into one dataset for import; if unchecked, each CAD layer will be imported as a separate dataset. Boolean
