CAD Prep & Cleanup
Fix the drawing before it pollutes the space database
What is cad prep & cleanup in CAFM?
CAD prep and cleanup tools audit a drawing before it is linked to the space database. Polyline audits find duplicate and overlapping geometry, impact analysis finds the blocks and layers that slow the platform, block interpretation catches un-exploded content, and Text ID tools make room numbers legible on screen.

Polyline Audit Utility
Scan for duplicate and overlapping geometry and closed boundaries missing space IDs.

Detect massive AutoCAD blocks and bloated or unnecessary layers driving file size.
Read moreBlock Interpretation Audit
Flag poorly interpreted blocks, such as un-exploded blocks rendering as blank rectangles.

Batch resize Text IDs and reposition labels for maximum legibility.

- A drawing problem becomes a data problem the moment the file is linked. Cleaning first is far cheaper than reconciling later.
- Duplicate or overlapping polylines double count square footage; closed boundaries with no ID leave rooms unmapped entirely.
- Bloated drawings are the usual cause of slow, crashing plans on tablets in the field, where technicians actually work.
