Roads from centerlines

[johnharley]

It would be VERY helpful to have a tool that would generate a road (or driveway) from a centerline. The tool could start by letting the user draw a centerline composed of connected arcs and tangents. Then, a box could pop up an ask: width of road, do you want curbing?, drop or swale? and size and finally do you want a right of way?. After defining the parameters the road would generate automatically.

The present road tool in Landmark is very basic and is really only useful for driveways and parking lots.

If you reference pages 4-4 - 4-14 in the Landmark 9.0.1 User's Guide, you can create roads in Landmark with a series of commands other than the road tool. This will give you more flexibility as to drawing a road and you can incorporate it into your DTM if you already have one constructed.

I had a chance to try this feature. THIS IS REALLY NEAT! Now if you could add the option for a Right-of-way it would be perfect.
