“Note: Selected occupy point has no elevation. All points

computed with this point will have no elevation

computed for them.”

An elevation adjustment on a traverse containing any 2D points is
not possible. If an attempt is made to do so, the following message is

displayed:

“Traverse contains a 2D point. Cannot adjust

elevations.”

Point Stake

When performing point stake using a 2D point, no cut/fill information

is provided. This is the case when either the occupy point or the stake

point is 2D. Cut/fill information is only provided when both the
occupy point and stake point have elevations.

Offset Stake

Offset stakeout functions similar to point stake, although cut/fill

information can be generated when using a 2D alignment and 3D
occupy point when a design elevation for the stake point is provided.

The following message is displayed in this situation:

“A 2D alignment has been selected; no cut/fill
information will be computed unless a design elevation

is entered.”

Slope Stake

Slope staking is not possible when using 2D points since elevations

are required.

Control Points

Control points can be all 2D, all 3D, or a mixture of both. The same

limitations for working with 2D non-control points will apply when

working with 2D control points.
