I have existing point data for road design, I want to triangulate the surfaces along the route (aligment), because we measure the current point data along the aligment,
so if I can triangulate along the road, the triangulation will be correct and will require less effort. Is there a way to do this?
Are you trying to include the black breaklines in the traingulation?
Black already my brekline but ı must drow blue breklines for correct triangulation but ı want to find a easy way for this
If all you have is a series of spot levels (points), the only way to make breaklines is to manually 'join the dots'. There is no 'magic' that will allow the software to know what points needs to be connected to what.
the program connects the nearest 3 points while triangulating, just creating a triangle for the program I am curious about, and if we can do this, a healthier triangle model can be created especially in spiral places. I think this could be improved a little more and included in the height factor.
If you already have this breaklines, say in a 2D file, you may drape them to your existing dgm, as new breaklines. You find this in two tools. 1. import surface, 2. menue/Surface/Surface design/project, drape to Surface

What do you mean by 'height factor'? It uses the z-values - what else do you expect?
