Then, how to add survey points to the terrain? Any response is really appreciated.

What method shall be used to create a terrain by the survey points in terrain modeling? Thanks again.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Charley</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: How to create a terrain by GIS contour and add survey points using OpenRoads Designerhttps://communities.bentley.com/thread/429368?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 05 Oct 2017 12:56:06 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:dfa6a55a-9451-472e-8f38-375bde166d5eMartin Y<p>I wouldn&#39;t use GIS contours as they are simply interpolated lines so you going to build in inaccuracy.</p> <p>You should go back to the raw survey points and use the terrain modelling tools to create a terrain</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
