Hi All,

 

Has anyone ever imported a 3d model (dxf or dwg) of the site grading from a civil firm? I'm looking for a faster way to get existing grading into Softplan rather than redrawing all those grade line in site mode.

 

Is everyone just redrawing their site plans with grading for sloped lots?

 

Thank you,

Brendan

I use the google earth import for sloped lots.

I use google earth too and have very impressed so far.  Some of the lots are on mountain slopes and the topos have been spot on.....so far.

Is there a tutorial available showing this being done.  

 

Thanks

Have you seen this, Mike?

I import them all the time then edit them as grade lines.  super easy.  Give me a call and I'll walk you through it
