What are some techniques to import a list of points in x, y, and z? Many they be separate features or a grouped? (Manual Entry Vs. Batch Entry) (Single Entry Vs. Multple Entry)
View 4 RepliesI had to create a boundary map and place points to all corners. How to export these newly created points back into my data collector (Ranger) and also I'm trying to figure out how to print out a points list.
I stumbled on to this thread but I guessing that it's a different CAD year because my modify tab doesn't look like this. URL.....
Let me make my question clearer by considering an example as follows, Assume I have points A, B, C and D in a map. Is there any command that can list the distance between any two points out of all points? e.g. distance of A-B, A-C, A-D, B-C, B-D, C-D.

We are trying to switch to a new parts list format, and the goal is to have all of our parts list imported from excel spreadsheets. The problem we are having is that we cannot import from excel and maintain the format from excel. The problem seems to be with merged cells. I have tried it both by: 1) Annotate > General > Table and 2) Manage > Insert > Insert Object with no success. I have a non-ideal work-around for this by inserting the "QTY PER ASSY" separately as a sketch symbol.
Attached is a sample of what we would like our parts list to look like. The red rectangle outline is what would be imported from excel.
I have been using the "LIST" command to get coordinates of a point. The list can be as long as my monitor is high. I need to copy the coordinates of about 3 000 points to a Microsoft Word file to manipulate with them.
The "LIST" command would show me about 4 points after which i have to press "ENTER" to get the next ones, but this is obviously pointless. How could i get the coordinates of very many points to a text file all at once?
I have a data table showing points surrounding a central source.I would like to create a calculation that adds a column in my data table of the points; that shows the distance between each respective point, and the central point.
My knowledge in expression building is limited,I assume I would be using some form of calculation using the geom, and the X and Y locations, however I'm coming up with nada.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a list function that asks for the user to pick points when it is run. It looks something like this (foo arg1 arg2) When invoked it asks the user to pick points and press enter when done It.
Instead of getting the points from the user i want to pass it a list of pre-defined points. The code cannot be changed so I must use it as is.Is this possible, if so how can it be done?
I am new to programming in general, but really new to C#. A little to discribe what I want to do.
I need to creat a command that once I run it, I get to choose an excel file that will be filled with points in a D,X,Y,Z format. (points range from 1-??) I know there are other ways of doing this (importing text ascii) but I need to cut down on the time and steps. This is something I do on a regular basis for people to convert different coordinate systems.
how to do the basics right now, I am just having trouble getting to the point that it will pull the info out of an excel file. I do not have any code right now to share to show my progress either.
i have 2500 points that i want to import, i have them in an excel file in the right way, and i can import them using multiple>point copy/paste. but i alsoo need to label them, up or down the point maybe to put an indicator. the ideea it's to create a grid, then manually using my eye to draw some line between this value, like drawing some same temperature/same pressure lines.

View 5 Replies View RelatedNew user of autocad map 3d. My company has tasked me with figuring out how to plot updates (new and modified cell towers) that come to us as lat/long coordinates on a aeronautical sectional map from the FAA's website.
The sectional maps come to us as GeoTiffs at 1:500,000 scale. We could plot these out by hand but I am trying to make the process a lot faster by using Map3d. My questions are:
1- How do i import the geotiffs keeping the right scale, projection, etc.
2-How do i insert a series of points at the same time
3- Can i output the file as a tiff when im done?

I am trying to import a survey into AutoCAD, and my client requires Attribute points. Normally we do not use attribute points, and I'm not having any luck importing the txt file that I created.
Assuming that I don't know the first thing about attributes (I now know a little, but I'm afraid that it might be wrong), but I know AutoCAD well (for what I do as a surveyor) what is the process of creating an attribute, and importing bulk amounts of data into it. The data would include:
(x) coord, (y) coord, z(coord) for the insertion point of the block Name, Feature_Code, Elev for the Tagged data needing to appear beside a 3d-point representing the x,y,z coords.
Using Land Desktop 3 I am able to create AECC points, but I do not have any Land Desktop experience at all, so I would rather stay away (I have no real need for it).
I do not have any 3rd party software that I know of that creates attribute points from a survey file, except for Trimble Geomatics Office, but it does not give me the format or all the data that I require.
To import the point along an alignment into Civil 3D, I need to introduce a scale factor. But by adding the Scale Factor column to the points and modify one of the formats in the Civil 3D to accept the scale factor, change was not affected to the initial state (without adding a column to a scale factor). I got the points, regardless of the scale factor and now, I want to add a scaling factor for the points.

1. When I do a re-import of my points my linework appears to double up (linework over linework).
2. In my description keys I use "rr" for rail road and "rrisg" for railroad signal (no * in code), linework comes in for both even though I only have it set up for "rr". I thought without the * in code this would not happen, but still does.
3. Finally, I use the "Survey Point Properties" window to make edits to points. All seems great, but when I got back into my drawing all my work was gone? Do I need to update the database some how with the changes? I was under the assumption that by doing it the way I do the changes are saved to the database. Is it better to do the edit on the Survey Tab by right clicking on the import event and selecting "Edit Points"?
i received a ascii file of position and elevation points (PNEZD) and do not see any where to import these points into AutoCAD 2011.
I know there exists survey products from autodesk, but still kind of wondering why there is no easy way to import points in the basic CAD program.
How to import a PNEZD file into AutoCAD 2011?
I am looking to import an excel file to creat points within LT 2012. Can this be done?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a text file in PNEZD where D is XYZ. I have a description key for XYZ. I am importing this file into survey. When I import this file the points do not take the style of the description key, they take a default style from somewhere. What trick am I missing so that when I import points into survey they use the description key and therefore have the correct style.

How to import survey points from excel sheet into AutoCAD 2013?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI use a Sokkia total station along with a data collector. I use this to bring measurement points in to another program that will draw a scaled map. I'm forced to use this other program and its supposed to be able to export the drawing into DXF format. It wont bring in the z coordinates. Is there a way I can use the total station to collect the points and then get them into AutoCAD 2013 so i can work my magic. Basically I draw crash scenes for a police department.

View 1 Replies View RelatedRunning C3d 2012 here, but haven't used prior versions. I'm using fieldbooks to import survey data. If there is an error of some kind and I "Re-import event" for the fieldbook, then the occupied points from the field book are deleted out of the survey database and I get the resulting error of "point invalid" during the import. My fix is to go into my control drawing and import the control points from the drawing into the survey database then run the "re-import" again.
