Typically, the labels we create in Civil 3D reflect specific object properties like coordinates, elevations, offsets, dimensional values or description name of an object. Sometimes though, you may wish to create a label that isn’t tied to object data especially when you are handling GIS data in AutoCAD. Fortunately, there is a way you can utilize the attributes of an object in autocad civil 3d to assign text annotation/ labels to object. MAPANNTEXT is an important command when it comes to annotating GIS data and we will explore in depth in this video.
