AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Translate Survey Database After TIN Surface Created
Jun 19, 2013I am working on and manipulating the data may need to be done using the translate survey database command in the next couple weeks. The surveyors are waiting on some boundary info., which may not be available for a week or so. I have all the points inserted, and line work is done. How I go ahead and build a TIN surface, what tools ,if any are available to rotate a surface after it is originally built. The surface will have to adjusted to match the new location of the points when adjust the data.

Oct 30, 2013I am working on a new subdivision where we made new property lines through an existing property. Is there a way to find out the bearings of the new lines made? The only way I can think to find this information is to dimension the angle and subtract it to get the new bearings.

Sep 8, 2013I have 100's of flat images that I have to chop up into 3 parts and save as individual pieces to then load into a separate piece of software.
My problem is that when I start the batch, the 3 new images it creates for each image are simply overwriting each other when saving.
The options for serial numbers etc in the destination field of batch seems to only work for the original file opened, not the 3 new images the action creates/saves.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Unlock The Locked Survey Data In Survey Databases

May 3, 2012here's my process:
1- Import the asc file into my drawing.
2- Convert the asc file to a FBK file
3- Import my FBK file. The survey figure linework generated doesn't overlay my previously imported asc file. I checked the FBK file and the coord's match the asc file. I'm confused as to why the survey figures don't overlay the survey points from the asc file, since the coords match in both? The survey figures are all shifted .7' and 54deg. from the points. The elevations are all good on the survey figures, as they match the survey points.
So my quick fix is to explode the survey figures, since I don't really need them for what I'm doing, and then select all the 3d polylines and move them to them to an appropriate survey point. Everything then looks fine and I can get the job done.
However, I would like some insight as to why this might be happening. It's strange that the FBK and asc coordinates match, but the survey figures aren't lying over them.

View 5 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Created Script To Convert In A Batch
Oct 15, 2012I have created a script to convert in a batch, about 2000 images, the problem is that gimp-file-save ignores image settings and uses its own defaults, so the image that has 6 layers, after being scaled, has only one layer!
the image is in format dds I am using gimp 2.8.2
the script:
(define (SECresizeTexture filename width height)(let* ((img (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)))(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-drawable img))))(gimp-image-scale img width height)(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE img drawable filename filename)))
as you can see, this is a generic script, I would like to avoid using the specific dds load/save because of increased complexity and for being specific to dds...
is it possible to set some format based on the original file? I could use the dds file save, parsing output from "identify -verbose filename" (imagemagick), but that will be a lot of trouble...

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Getting TDS RAW Survey Attributes Into It?
Dec 15, 2010We process survey data using Attributes to add extra intelligence and reduce errors.
For example, when shooting trees, the RAW file will contain something like this:
SS,OP 50,FP1299,AR308.2057,ZE91.0918,SD128.282,--TREE
FC,PN1299,FNTREE
AT,TNSZ,TV11.0
AT,TNTY,TVMAPLE
or when shooting a street sign:
SS,OP 50,FP1437,AR324.1135,ZE91.4728,SD123.235,--SIGN
FC,PN1437,FNSIGN
AT,TNTY,TVNO PARKING
The FC code sets up that attribute information will follow for the point number indicated by PN and the FN is basically explaining the name of the feature type. On the collector, this is all menu driven, making for few data entry errors.
The AT codes list the attributes name TN and then the TV reports its value.
Is there a way to preserve these attributes and their data when processing them into an FBK? Ideally, they would need to become part of a point description.
When processing this for that "other" CADD package, I am able to use these values in building labels for my survey points.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating EG From Survey?
Mar 15, 2013I was curious what the basic workflow is for creating an EG from a survey. The catch is that we don't have a point file or elevated points on the drawing. The drawing is just that a drawing with spot elevations and linework. The lot is 100' long and 30' wide. An existing house takes up most of the lot with a street on the front and back. The idea is to try making a grading plan after I figure this first part out. Where would I begin with something like this to figure out the next step of grading a small lot?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Database Coordinates Off
Feb 23, 2012i have a point file specifically a PNEZD file. when i import points into the survey database the coordinate in the database is correct but the coordinate on the drawing tends to be 5 feet off one way and 1 foot off the other. When I import point through the points pull-down menu the coordinates are correctly shown. When I import point into survey database from drawing the coordinate is incorrect in the database but correct on screen.

May 6, 2012I'm exploring the option of going from normal autocad and PDS (for our road designs) to fully using Civil 3D 2013.
Generally we only recieve a survey drawing as a 2d cad file with height points represented as 2d text.
In PDS all we need do is 'convert text to point' and create a ground model, this gives us a 3d ground mesh to work with.
In Civil 3d i've found 'movetexttoelevation' but now i'm stuck with adding a point at the node of the text object, and then I need to creat a surface model to overlay a 2d siteplan andstart creating our roads.

Jul 25, 2013I had an issue where I dropped points into my drawing for a survey and they weren't at the distance compared to recorded plat. I have checked the points mathematically, and they were dead on. A coworker suggested that I WBLOCK the points I was working with that way I don't move single points out of place. I disagreed, because the way i move points is I use the TOOLSPACE and move them as a group. So what I did was to drop the points again and now they were dead on the second time. I don't like turning points into a block due to the fact that it messes up my drawing.
View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Point Database
Mar 6, 2012How are you or your company managing points as in field shots, storage, dulplicate point numbers?
are you using vault?
are you using the point database?
are you using one drawing file to import and store the points?
what we are doing now is using the point database as a storage location but it fails for notification on when a point # is duplicated.
surveys has a drawing file they use to import, store and build the existing ground surface from the points. this allows the notification of when a point number is duplicated. but it is not as secure or flexable as the old LDD way.
We don't use field books just text files from the collectors imported in. Vault is not an option for us. (at this time)
so what i am looking for is how others are adapting to this change, and what worked or not.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Delete Survey Database
Jan 19, 2010I am running AutoCAD Civil 3D 2010. I am a new user and just going through some tutorials and created a couple of survey databases for practice. The problem I am having is I can't figure out how to delete them. When I exit Civil 3D and restart it, those databases are still there under the survey tab in Toolspace even though I haven't even opened a drawing yet. Also, do I need MS Access installed on my workstation to run any functions within Civil 3D?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Survey Figures Not Associated To Database
Jul 18, 2012I have a drawing that is about a month old with survey data and a surface in it. I went in to modify the surface and noticed a crossing breakline message that was never addressed. I attempt to do a grip edit on the survey figure that is crossing ,and update the database from drawing and I get a message saying the figure is in not in the database. I know I have the correct database, because if I select the figure in the prospector tab It highlights the one I'm working with. Somehow the objects in the drawing have lost association with the database.
Any solutions short of re-inserting all my figures from the database? I'm not going to do that in this case since the edit was small and is already done.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Expression In Structure Labels For Survey
Sep 6, 2013I am trying to make a single point label style that will return a blank line in the label if no data is provided.
The way i have it coded now my label for a structure with only two inverts comes out looking like this:
STCB 500 Rim=300.00
12" CONC N IE=295.00
12" CONC S IE=296.00
IE=300.00
IE=300.00
I would like the number of lines returned to match the actual number of inverts in the structure and leave out the place holders.:
STCB 500 Rim=300.00
12" CONC N IE=295.00
12" CONC S IE=296.00
I can work around this by having a label style for each number of pipes, but i would also like this code to be inseted into a table style and in that case i don't know of any way to assign multiple styles to one table.
My current code looks like this:
RIM=<[Point Elevation(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[1 SIZE(CP)]> <[1 TYPE(CP)]> <[1 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[1 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[2 SIZE(CP)]> <[2 TYPE(CP)]> <[2 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[2 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[3 SIZE(CP)]> <[3 TYPE(CP)]> <[3 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[3 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
<[4 SIZE(CP)]> <[4 TYPE(CP)]> <[4 DIR(CP)]> <[IE TEXT(CP)]><[4 INV(Uft|P2|RN|AP|GC|UN|Sn|OF)]>
LADDER <[LADDER(CP)]>
The problem is that 1 INV-4 INV are being defined by an expression that reads like
{Point Elevation}-{1 MD}
so when no data is intered for my UDP "1 MD" it returns the point elevation. I want an equation that says if rpoitn elevation -measure down=point elevation then no data is shown.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Rotate Points In DWG To Match Another Survey
Aug 14, 2006My field crew assumed a coordinate system and surveyed a job. I need to rotate the points in my dwg to match another survey. I have not found a rotate points command. Other LDT type commands have been replaced by standard ACAD commands by adding the transparent commands to them. I tried to use the ACAD rotate command and the transparent commands to rotate my points, but there is no transparent command to find multiple points. I need to select the points by point number range if possible.
