higgins Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi! Surveyor provided me a dwg file where all surveyed points were circles. Heights are on the side as text. Can I replace all circles with 3d-locuses with some command? Using VW 11. And any convinient way to assing the height without having to select them by mouse, move the cursor to OIP and typing the relevant number there? Like... some keyboard shortcut for choosing next object/locus and jumping to OIP? Finally. How can I explain to an AutoCAD using surveyor in his terminology, what form of data I need for best results in VW site modeling? I'm relatively new to 3d site modeling, but a net of 3d loci seems the best so far (I've had no luck with modeling from horisontals). Quote Link to comment
mike m oz Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Ask him for the contours as 3D polygons. You can then use these to generate your DTM. If the site is relatively flat ask for the contours to be at fairly close vertical spacings. Quote Link to comment
higgins Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 I got 3d points from one surveyor, so that's good, but I think I have to do the other site manually. Is there a keyboard shorcut for choosing next object/locus and jumping to OIP? Quote Link to comment
islandmon Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 just ask for the data> Northing, Easting, Elevation , Description... as a tab-delim text file. Quote Link to comment
