Supported map files
Map files are files that contain points, lines, arcs, polylines, and other map items such as alignments and surfaces that are not in the current database that you want to be able to view and select in the map.
DWG and NWD files are not supported when stored directly to an Android device. To use DWG or NWD files when running Trimble Access on an Android device, upload them to a Trimble Connect project using Trimble Connect for Windows. The files are automatically converted to TrimBIM files in the cloud. When you download the project to the controller, select the Settings tab and select the Download as TrimBIM check box. For more information, see Synchronizing data with the cloud.
