Hello,

I have the floorplan of a building as a DWG file (AutoCAD). This floorplan should be displayed to a website with all information that include in the dwg file. For example by clicking on a single room, the room size as dialog (jQuery) is output.

Is this possible with DWG files?

I know the DWG file in DXF files can be converted, but it does each room information will be lost.

Another idea would be to recreate the floorplan with "Image Map & Canvas" and to address the individual rooms by “Areas” and where to store the information. But that would be a very Complicated and Complex solution.

Any experiences or suggestions?

There is probably no universal "one box" solution. But you can try Autodesk Infrastructure Map Server - it can read DWG files (plus many other formats) and publish them as a web application, including linked "bubble" information. You may need AutoCAD Map 3D industry models for deeper customization of displayed textual information on the generated website.

I don't know if this exactly what you are looking for, but DWG Browser can take drawings and export them as HTML with preview images.

You can also try [CMD]PUBLISHTOWEB[/CMD] and the embed functionality in AutoCAD 360 (resp. A360) cloud service.
