Improve civil geometry constraints

Provide an option to quickly apply combined horizontal and vertical constraints to geometry elements. Where geometry lines (breaklines) intersect, they need to share a common elevation. The current process requires creating profile intersection po...

Create 3D by slope to terrain needs to have the option for the fill slope to be positive and vise versa for cut slope

When projecting a line to a terrain currently the only option for fill is down and cut is up. This needs to be a user selectable option. There are many cases where the proposed surface is above the existing ground yet the fill projection needs to ...

Place Civil Cell on Referenced Survey Feature

I would like the ability to place a civil cell along a survey feature that is referenced. We use a simple civil cell and cross sections to help compute existing pavement cross slopes.

Store vertical/horizontal alignment of low points

A tool existed in Geopak that could pick out the low point of a cross section to the left and right of centerline and construct horizontal and vertical alignments from that. This essentially automated the creation of a ditch profile along an entir...

Profile by best fit - Curve radius

Request to introduce the ability to create a profile by best fit by defining the radius of the arc rather than its length?

Add option to use only centerline radius for superelevation calculations

Provide an option or new method to use the centerline radius (instead of inside lane radius) for divided highways that use a Crown pivot method. The Divided Inside pivot method already does this for divided highways that pivot about the inside lan...

elevation analysis in profile view

Elevation analysis needs improved within the profile window. Specifically elevation differences. Either at a single station or point, or minimum distances, etc. In the attached screen shot, I would like to know where my minimum distance occurs bet...

Import and Export ITL templates from and to Microstation

In InRoads there was the ability to import templates from Microstation. This enabled complex shapes that were drawn in CAD to be used in templates.

Have the Terrain>Add boundary> Extract Graphics command generate a shape and not a line

The command Terrain>Add boundary with Setting "Extract Graphics" generates a line string. It should be a closed entity (shape). usually these entity will will used as a clip/mask later one, and will need to be turned into a shape so why not gen...
