Turnout points for tounge position

In railway engineering, there is a growing demand for positioning of the tongue in turnouts. The proposal is to introduce a new point in the Feature Definition of turnouts, making it possible to specify the distance from point .1 to the Tongue. Su...

Trace Slope - Line Style - add direction

One issue I've found with the trace slope is that the direction is adjustable (can be down or up) and ORD isn't smart enough to change the direction of the line. This causes two issues: 1) One of your flow directions is going to be wrong, dependin...

New Variable to Control XSEC View Exaggeration Separate from Profile View Exaggeration

Consider adding a set of variables to control XSEC view exaggeration and default exaggeration separate from profile view exaggeration. This would be similar to how there is a separate set of variables for super exaggeration. Suggested variables wo...

Profile Superelevation annotation based on Crossfall to a Linear feature

For almost all our projects we require very precise crossfall transitioning at tie-ins to existing and situations at ramps where we project crossfall from one carriageway to another. It is not practical for us to report crossfall and copy the valu...

Add Point Projection Interval Option to "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool

Currently when using the "Create 3D By Slope To Target" Tool, ORD seems to only project a point at every vertex of a 3D line string. This is fine when using the Geometry Tools to create 3D line strings since it creates a vertex point in 3D based o...

Cross Section named boundary by 2 points - Offset Overrides

When we create cross sections for culverts, the cross section often needs to be created at a skew from the centerline. We are able to create these using the 2 Points option. This option, however, is limited. We would like for our cross sections to...
