The ability to set a corridor feature definition that automatically increases the template drop interval in sections with curvature and superelevation

As we transition to using the model as a legal document, we are refining the standards we have for template drops to ensure our model provides adequate information to be used directly in construction. Our standards will require a certain interval of template drops in tangent sections, and then require shorter intervals in sections that have horizontal curves, superelevations/transitions, or vertical curves. It would be a great feature and time saver to have a corridor feature definition that could automatically detect when a roadway section had a horizontal curve/super/vertical curve and then increase the template drop interval by an appropriate factor.

    The software already adds template drops at horizontal curves, superelevations/transitions, and vertical curves (default is off). This is controlled in the Corridor Feature Definition settings. What could we add to make this more helpful for your organization.
