Skewed key stations

I had a situation where I wanted to model Interstate NB and SB as separate and cut them off of the median cl. I was unable to get the tie slopes to tie to existing ground when cutting cross sections. Adding "key stations" at a skew would resolve t...

Ignore Specific Survey Observations

InRoads had the ability to ignore specific survey observations. If ORD had that same capability that would be fantastic.

Place custom pier and/or abutment via reference

Import Item Type Values

Currently, we can set default values for item types and then change them once they are drawn into the file. However, if the values that we need to input into the item type are coming from a source outside of ORD, there's no way to import that info...

The graphical filter is limited to feature element symbology and feature definition. Multiple, redundant, feature definitions must be created in order to import features to multiple surfaces. The feature names, assigned in the template, can be use...
