A project has seed file of 2D of default design model, default sheet model & DPF sheet model. How to convert all these 2D seed to 3D in MX Road SS4 V8i?

Hi Vaibhav,

Can you please elaborate what you are trying to achieve here.

Actually my current project seed file is 2D. So whenever I try to 1) capture google earth image & 2) import point cloud data , the work doesnot get done. If there is any method to capture google earth image in model with 2D seed, that will also hold good.

Vaibhav, a 2D seed/file has 2 dimensions, that means it considers only the X,Y. Where as any terrain data like Google Earth or point clouds has 3D data, that it X,Y,Z or Lat, long, elevation. So in order to import such data you need a 3D file / model. You can try to create a new model within this file, and select 3D and work in this model to import the terrain data. Hope this helps.

When you create a new plan in MX, you should always get a 3D file. Where are you getting the seed files from?

In V8i, on the File menu, there is an option to export a file to 3D. I have used this in the past to generate 3D seed files when only provided with 2D. Is that available to you in OpenRoads?
