source drawing A drawing file attached to another drawing. The set of all source drawings
attached to a drawing is called the drawing set. Use a query to retrieve selected objects from
multiple source drawings.
spatial A generic term used to reference the mathematical concept of n-dimensional data.
spatial data Information about the location and shape of geographic feature (page 311) s,
and the relationships between those features.
spatial database A database containing information indexed by location.
style Settings that specify how to display the objects in a Display Manager (page 310) layer.
For example, you can style color, linetype, linewidth, and scale.
SuperUser An AutoCAD Map 3D user who can perform user administration tasks, set system
options, and perform any other AutoCAD Map 3D operation.
surface layer A layer in Display Manager (page 310) containing feature (page 311) s from a
raster (page 314) image that contains elevation information. Surface layers are added to your
map using Data Connect. See also See also AutoCAD layer (page 309) , drawing layer (page 311) ,
feature layer (page 311) .
Survey A tab on the Task Pane that allows you to bring in LandXML or ASCII point data,
manage the resulting point layer, and Bulk Copy the data to another data store.
table A set of data arranged in records (rows) and fields (columns). When a table is displayed
in a grid, records are displayed in horizontal rows and fields are displayed in vertical columns.
Each field value in the table is displayed in a cell.
Task Pane AutoCAD Map 3D window that displays information about the current drawing.
The Task Pane contains four tabs: Map Explorer (page 312) , Display Manager (page 310) , Map
Book (page 312) , and Survey (page 315) . You can resize the Task Pane and place it where you
want.
template A paper space layout you can use as the basis for a new layout. The paper space
objects and page setup in a template are used for any new layout you create with that
template. You can keep, delete, or modify any of the objects from a template you use. No
model space objects are included. Layout templates are identified with a .dwt file extension.
theme A style (page 315) that varies the appearance of an element in a layer based on the
value of a specific property (page 313) . For example, instead of coloring lakes blue, you could
vary the shade of blue based on the depth of the lake. Instead of choosing one line width
for all roads, you could vary the line width based on number of lanes.
tile Map books divide a single map into a set of tiles and display each tile on a separate map
book page.
