Converts CAD drawings (DXF, and DWG via ODA File Converter, LibreDWG or GDAL) into GIS layers grouped by CAD layer and geometry type (LINE / POLYGON / POINT).
Features: per-INSERT block preservation (keep-merge) or explode, nested blocks, hatches with holes, block attributes (ATT_*), TEXT/MTEXT extraction, reprojection (e.g. TWD97 EPSG:3826 to WGS84), WGS84 bounding-box filter, Unicode (e.g. Chinese) layer names, export to GeoPackage or Shapefile and automatic loading into QGIS. Also available as a Processing algorithm.
DWG: if neither ODA File Converter nor LibreDWG is installed, LibreDWG (GPL-3.0, Windows) can be downloaded from its official GitHub releases on request; DWG R2000 can always be read with GDAL's built-in CAD driver.
Python requirements: geopandas, pandas, shapely, pyproj and pyogrio (or fiona); ezdxf is recommended. QGIS does not ship geopandas - the plugin shows what is missing and can install it with pip on Windows/macOS after confirmation (Linux: use your distribution packages, e.g. python3-geopandas).
