JSON to AutoCAD Conversion
Our custom importer provides the easiest way to bring JSON into AutoCAD in just 3 steps:
Download Automesher Application
Import JSON files directly into AutoCAD drawings with Automesher Application - simply install the add-on and restart your CAD software.
Import JSON File
Execute the AmImportMesh command or click the Import Mesh button to open your JSON file (.json, .cityjson).
Choose AutoCAD Entity Type
Select your target AutoCAD entity - Polyface Mesh, 3D Solid, Subdivision Mesh, 3D Face, or Surface - and press Enter to complete the JSON file import into AutoCAD.

CityJSON File
A modern, JSON based (JavaScript Object Notation) file format designed for storing 3D city models. It efficiently represents buildings, roads, bridges, and other urban features with support for textures, semantics, and metadata.
Key Features of CityJSON
- JSON-Based: Lightweight, human-readable, and easy to parse (no complex XML like CityGML).
- Semantic Richness: Preserves object attributes (e.g., building heights, roof types, road classifications).
- LOD Support: Stores multiple Levels of Detail (LOD1 - LOD4) for flexible use cases.
- Web-Ready: Works seamlessly with JavaScript, APIs, and 3D web viewers (like Cesium or Three.js).
- Open Standard: Developed and maintained by the 3D Geoinformation Group (Delft University).
- Format Alert: CityJSON and GeoJSON both use the .json extension - always verify the data structure before processing.
CityJSON File Conversion
Autoconverter and Automesher Application let you import, export, and convert CityJSON files to formats like STL, OBJ, SKP, and 3DS while preserving semantic data and geometries. Easily integrate 3D city models into your workflows - try our CityJSON converters today!
AutoCAD Drawing
Autodesk's AutoCAD is a leading software program in the field of Computer Aided Design (CAD). It is renowned for its support of the native DWG drawing format. Widely used by architects, engineers, and designers, AutoCAD enables precise 2D drafting and 3D modeling. Its powerful tools streamline the creation of technical drawings, floor plans, and construction documentation.
Key Features of AutoCAD
- 2D Drafting & 3D Modeling: Create precise technical drawings and realistic 3D models with a comprehensive set of tools.
- Customization & Automation: Use AutoLISP, scripts, and ObjectARX (AutoCAD’s advanced API) to build custom applications and automate workflows.
- Native DWG Support: Work seamlessly with AutoCAD’s proprietary DWG format, ensuring optimal performance, compatibility, and data integrity.
- Dynamic Blocks: Create intelligent, reusable blocks with adjustable properties.
