The problem is that 3D had so many particular templates and variables that are user specific and if yours does not match, then it is more of a hassle to fix. After doing so, we were told to stop and just do it in 2D and supply a point file so the engineer could run his own surface. We were required to send in design topo for projects in 3D.

We had problems with 3D from the other end. As far as Carlson and ACAD are concerned, Only Carlson Civil works with the 3D files and probably a bit iffy up until the 2017 version. Just make sure you are using the latest version. To your question, We always used AutoCad TrueView to convert newer version ACAD files down to what TM can accept (which for us is like 2007). But in recent years I have found several other programs that do all of that and more and since Terramodel is not supported I have given it up. I used to use it quite a bit, mostly for contouring because it had really nice routines and it also handled massive point files (like LIDAR tiles) well. Nothing seems to be a consistent fix, and I was hoping that someone somewhere may have unlocked the secret to what needs to happen to CAD files to make sure the data will import to TM properly. Sometimes we are still unable to make the CAD file usable in TM. We have also used TrueView to save files back to 2000 version somewhat effectively. We have IntelliCAD 2015, which works for some instances by saving back to Acad 2000 version DWG or DXF.

Perhaps I'll revisit the idea of switching over once they work a few more bugs out.Īnyway, I was hoping that someone has cracked the secret to convert newer CAD files to something that can be imported into Terramodel.

I was told that AutoDesk was planning to invest some time and resources into improving the Civil 3D software to prevent it from crashing repeatedly. As it seems that Terramodel is still best suited for the work we do, we will continue to use that for now. I went to the surveyor's conference last year to check out Carlson and AutoCAD Civil 3D as we have been having many issues importing CAD files that we are getting from different design engineers when we go to prepare for construction stakeout. We have been using Trimble's Terramodel software since I started working here 18 years ago right out of high school.

We are a relatively small surveying shop in between Allentown and Reading in Berks County, PA. Posted by Robert Hain on Maat 12:20pm in Surveying Equipment and Software Talk
