Add a property to apply terrain feature type to civil elements.

Set the terrain feature type for template points (breakline, boundary). When creating a terrain from a corridor, this would automatically create the exterior boundary eliminating the need for trimming edge triangles. Provide this same functionalit...

Terrain substitute tool

"Terrain Substitute” command that would swap all links from one Terrain to another, and also swap Parent Terrains for Surface Templates ( without breaking rules/relationships).

Ability to make Geometry Profile models indexed DGN models for ease of use & design workflows

Similar to all the other models, we regularly want to go in and out of Alignment Profile models and the current methods of having to navigate to the geometry to access it is very disruptive and inefficient. Also, having these as hidden models limi...

When creating a new point in a Survey field book using the “New Point” command, allow an option to hand-enter the coordinates.

When using the “New Point” command for a survey point, the user must screen-pick the coordinates. There are times when it would be extremely useful to hand-enter the Northing, Easting, Elevation.

Calculate the area of survey chains if they are enclosed shapes

Survey chains (when enclosed) have a reported area value of zero. This is seen in the properties for the geometry, and also if you try to read the area through an item type using the expression This.GetElement().EnclosedArea. Our construction staf...

Export multiple terrain models as a single XML file

We deliver terrain models for top/bottom surfaces of a roadway. Due to gaps in project data we often have multiple top surfaces and multiple bottom surfaces. It would be nice to export all surfaces as a single XML file similar to alignments.

Annotate Slope between 2 Linear Geometries in Cross Section

2 x 3D linear geometries are created with the existing terrain. In cutting cross section, 2 points are displayed in a section. However, the slope value between 2 points are not able to annotated under annotation group.

Terrains Analyse Volume scenarios toolbar

Instead of a one time thing, create and save the comparison set in a toolbar table. If I want to run again I just need to hit a refresh button for the specifc set. When developing a project, keeping track of cut and fill volumes between design and...

Survey Field Book Enhancement

Users would like the ability to create multiple field books without the terrain connecting to each. This would be necessary when surveying multiple sites for one given road project. Currently, this is done by importing the data and then going to t...

Geometry Replacer needs to include Vertical geometry

The horizontal Geometry Replacer tool is a step in the right direction, but it needs to include support for replacing profiles as well or have a companion tool of some kind.
