In this tutorial, we are about to present to you all the necessary steps, in order to connect your existing Nearmap Account to Plex-Earth 5D.
This way you will be able to import the high-resolution aerial imagery from your Nearmap Account straight into AutoCAD or BricsCAD, georeferenced with the help of Plex-Earth 5D.
Keep in mind that you can access Nearmap images in Plex-Earth 5D, without holding a Nearmap account, just by having a Plex-Earth 5D Business license plus additional credits. If, however, you already hold a Nearmap account, you will not need credits, just your Nearmap API Key and a Plex-Earth 5D active Business license.
NOTE: Before proceeding with these steps, please make sure that you have contacted us at support@plexscape.com
The steps to connect Plex-Earth 5D and Nearmap are very simple:
To begin with, you will firstly need to run the "PXV_VAR_NEARMAP_APIKEY" command, by copying and pasting it on the command bar on the bottom of CAD's workspace.
Then, the only thing remaining would be to enter your existing Nearmap API key.
NOTE: The above mentioned command is available only in the Plex-Earth 5D Business subscription!
After completing this process, you will be able to create Nearmap georeferenced mosaics into CAD using Plex-Earth 5D and your Nearmap account - no credits needed!
Plex-Earth 5D is waiting for you, go on and install a fully functional 7 day free trial of Plex-Earth 5D!
