The integration of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) data from Autodesk AutoCAD with the Google Earth virtual globe platform provides a powerful workflow for visualizing infrastructure, site plans, and 3D models in real-world geographic contexts. This paper details the technical process of importing AutoCAD geometry (2D/3D) into Google Earth, focusing on file format compatibility, coordinate reference systems, georeferencing techniques, and common obstacles. Best practices for maintaining scale, rotation, and elevation fidelity are also presented.
