Geolocation Map preview/Map insert discrepancies

Geolocation Map preview/Map insert discrepancies

Anonymous
No aplicable

I'm trying to use the Geolocation tool to insert a roadway into my drawing, but the roadway displayed on the screen where you choose a time zone, and the roadway that is inserted into the model are different in that the particular street I need to have in view doesn't appear in the latter yet does so in the former. I've tried a number of things to correct this, but I am completely lost. Unfortunately this is a time sensitive issue so I'm open to any suggestions. I've included two screenshots to help clarify. Before time zone selectionBefore time zone selectionAfter insertion to modelAfter insertion to model

You are using 'Road' as the background image and the map has not been updated to reflect new construction and development. It may be a few months before a new photo is available.Switch to  'Aerial' and you will see the new road.

Use dropdown and switch from 'Road' to 'Aerial.''Use dropdown and switch from 'Road' to 'Aerial.''

 

Aerial background image is more recent than Road background.

HI @Anonymous,

 

I see that you are visiting as a new member to the AutoCAD forum. Welcome to the Autodesk Community!

 

 I wanted to explore this issue so I opened my Edge browser and went to Bing Maps and selected a Road view of that area.

The map clearly shows Newnan Centre off the round-about. Switching to the Aerial View also shows the road as constructed.

So then, switching to AutoCAD 2019, I Geolocated the map using NSRS07-GA-W coordinates.  I see this in the Map Hybrid.  The road is clearly shown as in this image:

When I switch to the Road view, it is not shown.

I am not sure how to explain what is going on. I will start to research this immediately.

I assumed this was the case, but It seemed odd the the preview would include the road but the actual insertion did not. I ended up just drawing the missing road and tried to make it match Bing Maps' color pallet. Thank you for your help and reply. Capture.PNG
