AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Large Surface - Converting Points To Cogo Points

Mar 5, 2013

I have a large surface (over 1.5 million points and 20 000hectares)

I need to get a point file .csv from the TIN to be able to use it in another program.

-so i've extracted the points from my surface, but they are Autocad points.

-next step is to convert them to civil 3d points.

-I can not select them all when converting them or my computer crashes.

-so i select about 25 000 at a time, the converting takes roughly 10 minutes.

and i have over 1.5 million points to do.

how can i speed this up.

will more ram useful?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Converting Points To COGO Points Naming?

Oct 9, 2012

I have recieved a file with many points and would like to convert them into COGO points in Civil 3D. The problem is; I would like to keep the hole ID's as I convert, I've made a few conversions and lose the hole ID every time (not showing in Name or Description). Is there a seting I am missing to keep these? My aim to to organize the COGO points in different point groups.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points Snapping To Z Value

Feb 1, 2013

I was able to move Cogo points onto an existing line or polyline, and retain their existing Z value, rather than changing to 0.00 of the height of the poly line/line.

Is there a variable to change this? Thought it might be "OSNAPZ" but thats already set to 1 and this is still happening.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: COGO Points Description And Styles

Sep 10, 2012

How to set a default point description to match the point number. I need to match the point number and the point description as per below:

Point # = 1 - Description = 1Point # = 2 - Description = 2Point # = 3 - Description = 3and so on.

Is there a quick way to add this description once the points are already created?

Also, it seem I can't make the default style and label to work. I edited the Feature Setting on the Setting tab of the Toolspace and I made sure there's no child override. When I open the point creation menu, my default styles are there (grayed out), but when I create the points, they pick up another style and another label style.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points Plan Readability

Sep 5, 2013

My delima is regarding cogo point readability. I'm used to LDD so this may be the issue. I set a cogo point but I want it to stay in the same orientation. if I use orbit or dview the cogo point data reorients (rotates) to line up horizontally. I would like the data to remain as set originally. I tried changing plan readabilty in label styles but when I drag the point it rotates to the current view orientation. Is there a way to control the rotation once dragged so it does not reorient if I change the orbit or dview?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points Rotated In Paperspace

Oct 1, 2012

I have a dwg that looks great in model space, however I created a couple paperspace layouts and then used Align Space to rotate to those views. The problem is that my point label style rotates the point labels based on the align space rotation.

I looked into the point label settings and changed the orientation reference to the World Coord. Sys., but it does not make the points rotate correctly. (world reference is the goal).

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Creating Blocks From Cogo Points?

Feb 11, 2013

We are in the middle of upgrading from LDD2008 to Civil3D2013. This is a 2 part question. Since there are NO point labels similar to Poiint labels in LDD2008. It is making cleaning the elevations up very teadious. With point labels that are just Mtext. I would rotate 1 label and then match properties to rotate the rest and then jiust more the elevations to make them readable.

How do you all deal with cleaning up the elevations?  Is there a way to match proprties as far as the rotatiion of the points? or do you Create blocks from Cogo points?

So, I starting playing with the Creating Blocks from Cogo Points. This creates a block with attributes similar to the way Softdesk treated points back in the day. I ran into a couple of issues. 1 being, it rounds the elevation to 3 decimals places.

When it creates blocks from the Cogo Points some of the blocks are giving me 0.000 elevations for points that had actual elevations.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Automatic Hyperlink On COGO Points

Jul 1, 2012

As survey data collectors now come with cameras intergrated, it would be very useful to be able to have a way of hyperlinking the imported survey points to the images. Images are normally named by the survey point number that they are associated with.

Can Civil3D import points and automatically have the hyperlink field of a COGO point populated?

Can this be achieved through the survey database? Or maybe via a point-file with UDP's?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: COGO Points Won't Display In One Layout

Apr 12, 2012

I have a layout in my drawing (Civil 3d 2011) with multiple viewports and my point symbols (trees, manholes, etc.) won't display. I have other layouts in the same drawing that display them fine, but I need to use this specific layout for what I'm doing. This must be a setting of some sort but I can't seem to figure it out.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Blocks From COGO Points

Apr 8, 2012

This is a fantastic option, but I have a problem the whole drawing is rounded to two decimal places.

But when I execute create block from Cogo points he round heights on all points to three decimal places,where the third decimal is 0.

Example height is H =198.36 after H=198.360.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Copy Cogo Points From One Drawing To Another

Mar 11, 2011

I would like to copy cogo points from one drawing to another, keeping both their layer and user defined properties.

I can:

1. Do a copy and then paste to orginal co-ords. This keeps the layers but loses the UDP's.

2. Export the points to a csv and import into new drawing. This keeps the UDP's but loses layers

3. Export to XML. This loses both Layers and UPD's

I don't have a desc key file setup for the codes on these pts so this is not an option.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: COGO Points Not Displaying Elevation Properly

Jul 1, 2013

I have a rather odd situation.  I have input a small table of survey points (we don't have access to a data collector, so it had to be manual).

I have a properly located and back-sited setup, with all of the points located in 3 dimensions.

The Northing/Easting/Elevation data is calculated and displayed for all of the points in the "observations" table accurately.

Every point has the same display/labeling properties/settings, but only 2 points properly display the elevation as calculated.

The problem seems to be that the points aren't accurately retrieving the Elevation from the table.

For some reason, in the “Properties” dialogue for the points that display properly, the “Point Elevation” field actually contains a number; whereas the points that don’t, the same field reads “*PROPERTY NOT SET*”.

This makes no sense, because in the table that defines the points, the elevation is accurate for all of the points, and I can’t find a difference in the table- or in the point properties- between the correctly displayed points, and the ones that are missing the elevation label.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points - Object Naming Defaults

Jun 19, 2013

I'm not finding where to change the default Description for Creating Cogo points by the Create Points-Alignments>At Alignment Geometry method

The last characters PC, PT RP etc. seem to be controlled by the Drawing Settings>Abbreviations but the Alignment name and stationing is what I'd like to eliminate from the description if possible.

Almost seems hard coded but hopefully I've been looking in the wrong places.

The descriptions are coming in like the caption whether I select Raw or Full description option.

In command settings for Point>Create Points>Points Creation>Prompt for descriptions>Automatic - Object is what I'm using.

What I'm hoping to accomplish is just PC, PT RP etc for description without the find / replace edits I'm currently doing in the exported ascii files.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Cogo Points Explode To Block Reference

Oct 7, 2013

I got a survey that has hundreds of cogo points. I need to bring this into a mapping dwg but not as cogo points. What's already in the map file is block reference (trees, power poles, signs, etc.). When I explode the cogo points (select all) they turn into 1/100th of the size (although the Properties scale hasn't changed). If I explode one by one, they are fine. how I can get these cogo points into the map dwg as block reference at the correctoriginal size?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Drawing Lines To Cogo Points Hangs Up

Feb 23, 2012

When I start to draw my polylines to cogo points I have inserted in my drawing it keeps wanting to hang up when I hover over the point. I have set up my point styles to bring in our points with all the attribute information so I am thinking it keeps trying to read all that info as soon as my mouse hits it..

I saw a post about rollovertips but that did not change anything. Any ides what might be causing this? Im using Civil3D 2011.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Projecting COGO Points To Profile - Style

May 17, 2012

I have projected Civil 3D COGO Points projected to a profile.  I simply want to display the Civil 3D Point Number for each point in the profile. 

In the Profile Projection Label Style, the only field in the text editor that displays this point number is the "Source Object Name.  This shows up as "CogoPoint 124" for point 124 (see attached).  How do I make this simply say the point number ONLY, i.e. "124"?

It would be nice to program the label style to display this field, yet delete the first 10 characters of "CogoPoint x", so it only says the point number, "x"

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: How To Make Selection Set Filter For Cogo Points (DXF Codes)

I was wondering how to develop a Selection Set Filter that will select only Cogo Points? I know I need to use Dxf.Start as the code, but then what's the string associated with Cogo Points? Can't find any documentation on this or any Civil 3D-unique entities...I know Line is just "Line" and "Arc" is just arc...but Polyline is the unintuitive "LWPolyline" and "Cogo Point" isn't working.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Setting Up Custom Coordinate System For COGO Points

Jul 10, 2012

I have a small field (5 by 5 meters) to be set out with about 40 points. Currently i use EOV (Hungarian National Coordinate System), thus each point has a lot of digits. I want to make the implemetor's job easier, so i want to move and rotate the CS near to my field.

I tried to use UCS, but the COGO points retained the "World" coordinates.

How to carry out this without moving my whole drawing to the origin?

Can you manually create a new cogo point and have it pick up the elevation from a 3D entity that you snap to?
