Ladxml SewerGems export to Civil3D doesn't have EGL

Hi

I just wanted to export a model to C3D.

I did export it as Landxml , everything is fine, but it does have HGL but show 0 for EGL!

Thanks and look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

 

Hamid

  • Hello Hamid,

    When you are exporting landxml from SewerGEMS, only HGL gets exported not EGL.
    It’s because Landxml is not meant to represent hydraulic properties, rather it’s for physical data.
    Please give us some time to investigate this further, we will see if we have workaround of exporting the profiles to dxf to see EGL or similar.

  • Hamid,

    I took a look at this with Sushma. As Sushma said, the main purpose of the LandXML import/export is to exchanges physical data. If you look at the Help topic called "LandXML Attribute Mapping", you'll see confirmation that only the Hydraulic Grade is exported (not the EGL as well). With that said, I went ahead and logged this as Enhancement # 210239 for our product management team to consider exporting EGL in a future release.

    If you're interested in viewing the energy grade line in an external product such as Civil3D, you can create profiles and export those to DXF format. More on that here:
