OpenRoads - Extra VPIs in profile

nrockey — Fri, 12 Sep 2014 14:06:36 GMT

I have been using the Vertical Geometry tools in OpenRoads to create a proposed profile for a proposed roadway alignment. When I export the profile to Geopak and draw the profile using the Design and Computation Manager, extra VPIs are drawn at all of the VPTs on the vertical alignment. Does anyone know what could be causing this to occur and how I can avoid this problem when creating profiles in OpenRoads?

Is there a way to create a TIN or DTM from a proposed 3D design file?

I have completed my design in SS3 OpenRoads, and I currently have a default model and a 3D model for my design. I would like to create a TIN or DTM of the entire 3D model because it has all the proposed surfaces and elements I will need. Is there a way for me to create a TIN of the entire 3D model or will I have to create a TIN of each terrain model? This also poses a problem because I have only seen tools to create a TIN or DTM from terrain- are there options to include linear templates in the proposed TIN?

Cannot import profile into OpenRoads file to an existing horizontal alignment.

I am trying to work on a profile in Geopak and then import the vertical alignment into SS3 OpenRoads to an existing horizontal alignment. Every time I try to import, a new horizontal alignment is created. Is there a way to import a profile to an existing horizontal alignment?
