When I import a DTM file that has several unconnected ditches in the same terrain model extra triangles are created to connect the areas. This gives incorrect volumes in quantity calculations. The same happens when I try to create the terrain model…

Hi, Dear All, I tried several times to generate a 3sm file from a dtm terrain and aerial photos. However, I only get an all-white 3sm model (see below). Could you please help me solve this? I felt it is because the GCSs of the dtm and aerial photos…

I merged two surfaces together to create the existing surface for my design. Upon cutting cross sections I see that both surfaces are displayed instead of just the merged surface. I'm new to OpenRoads (2020 Release 3). Is this caused by the way I merged…

I got a DEM in raster format from ArcGIS and tried to convert to inroads DTM by following Tools> Data Acquisition. I picked the correct projection and exported to inroads DTM. When i bring the DTM in and try to draw contours, it prompts to triangulate…

can we use stecil command in openroads designer to drape multiple 2D surfaces onto terrain (or any 3d surface) simultaneously? Right now i have to use this commande for ONE 2D SURFACE at a time. I have multiple such 2D surfaces in my model hence it is…

Hello Eveyone, I have done some research and digging related to this issue already and have not be able to find an answer or better solution for what I need to do. The issue I am having is that I need to create a terrain model from 3D contours and breaklines…

I am trying to export a terrain model as a dtm. The actual export seems fine. When I open another file and create a terrain from file, there are less contour lines and they are not in the same locations as in the model. Also, the contour call outs are…

I am trying to get data from a terrain model. now i have got DTM object: auto ts = TerrainSurface::CreateFromElementHandle(eeh); if (!ts.IsValid()) { mdlDialog_dmsgsPrint(L"not a terrain surface"); return; } DTMPtr dtm = ts->GetDTM(); if (!dtm.IsValid…

A client wants us to provide them with an InRoads digital terrain model (DTM) for a project we are doing. However, we are only used to creating ".tin" files using the build DTM tool in our "ODOT cadd Power GEOPAK SS4" version of microstation. is there…

Currently trying to use Lidar data (.las) from the state of KY to make an inroads DTM. When trying to import into inroads SS2 the coordinates and elevations are way off. I tried to import in SS4 using the "Create From File" civil terrain tool. This will…

I have a drainage profile that spans across 2 surfaces. The nodes are referencing their respective surface as seen in the attached image (see highlighted elevations). The Surface profile is drawn at a total different elevation. I have created a surface…

I need to drape 2d dgn lines and curves onto Geopak TIN file? I found the tool but sure about the settings and workflow. Did a search of the Geopak help files did not produce results. The work is very distilled below: 1. Client provides source files…

Hello All, I am looking for the workflow for deleting out spikes to zero within a DTM/Terrain in ORD. Any help with this is much appreciated.

I'm working on a project that features a station equation and have created a corridor for it. When I cut cross sections everything runs great up until the station equation. After the equation my proposed cross sections cut from the DTM my corridor…

This has been discussed before but without any efficient answer I am asking it again in a slightly different manner. We survey large irregular property for a local municipality that requires MicroStation. These sites always require additional topo work…

I am working on our final model for the dtm, finished grade tin, and top of dirt tin in Geopak SS2 Roadway Designer. I recently had to create additional templates to aid in the top of dirt surface creation. In doing so, somehow now my top of surface tin…
