CARIS Support Files : Mapping : Mapping DGN Objects : Meta Data
 

Meta Data

Meta data is contained in the <ConversionTableInfo> tag. If meta data attributes are not included, you cannot import objects to the database. This tag should not be modified because the meta data is needed by the Import tools.

This is an expanded meta data section.
