Polylines
A polyline in Survey Pro is a line connecting points together. Each vertex of the line
is defined by an existing point, whether an observed or keyed in point. Points in
polylines can be connected with either straight segments or horizontal curves.
You can use the polyline editor to modify polylines (go to Job > Edit Polylines). The
polyline editor is described in the Online Help.
Editing
Alignments
An alignment in Survey Pro is a line defined by vectors starting at a Point of Beginning
(POB). The POB can be an existing point in the job, or just location coordinates.
Alignments can have horizontal segments and optionally a vertical profile. Horizontal
segments can be straight segments, circular curves or spiral curves. A vertical profile
can be defined using a vertical curve and straight grade segments.
You can use the alignment editor to modify alignments (go to Job > Edit Alignments).
The alignment editor is described in the Online Help.
You can import alignments for staking, using Roads > Edit Roads menu. Alignments
imported using this function can be viewed in the alignment editor but cannot be
modified.
Exporting
Data
Use the File > Export function to export data from the open job to one of the supported
file formats. For most formats (Survey, JOB, TXT, CSV, CR5 and DXF), you may select
the portion of the current job you wish to export. For export to XML, Survey Pro 4.x
(Job/RAW) or JobXML format, the entire job database will always be exported.
