Create an Alignment from a GENIO String
GENIO strings are sets of 3D points connected to form linear features, such as street centerlines or curb lines. There are three types of GENIO strings that can be imported. Each type can be used in a different way.
GENIO String Types |
|
3D |
Import these, and use them with other data to form a surface. They do not import as alignments, and cannot be converted into alignments. |
6D |
Import these, and convert them into alignments using the steps below. |
12D |
Import these. They are automatically converted into alignments that appear in graphic views and the Project Explorer. |
Prerequisites:
- License; See the Subscription Plans page. For a license matrix by command, see the License page in the TBC Community. Also see View and manage licensed features.
- GENIO 6D string
To create an alignment from a 6D string:
- Import a GENIO 6D string.
- In a graphic view, pick the string.
- Select Create Alignment from GENIO 6D String in Corridors > Alignment.
The alignment is created. It appears in graphic views (coincident with the original string) and in the Project Explorer.
Note: After you convert a GENIO 6D string into an alignment, check the results thoroughly.
