This file does not tell us the coordinatesystem of the points or the units.

You will find that this file has three columns, and these correspond to (1) the Northing, (2) theEasting, and (3) the elevation of each point (row).

Open the file “st reach topo nez.txt” in a text editor(Notepad or Wordpad, or import into Excel).ĬEE 317 GeoSurveying3. “NEZ” stands forNorthing, Easting, Z (elevation). The survey data files are saved as ASCII text files.There are two here: “st reach topo nez.txt” and “st reach wse nez.txt”. Open the folder to look at the data included. Here, we will explore the data in AutoCAD instead.Download the data at this address: jwheaton/ICRRR/2010/Part II/ProvoTopoData.zipAfter it has downloaded, unzip the data in a location where you have write permission.2. The original assignment for Utah State University was developed forArcGIS. These survey data include a number of cross sections across the river (points takenalong the river bed). For this tutorial, we will use survey data of a short reach of the Provo River from Utah StateUniversity. CEE 317 GeoSurveyingAutoCAD Civil 3D Tutorial: Importing Survey PointsThis tutorial guides you through the basic steps required to (1) import survey data into AutoCAD andbuild a surface, (2) explore representations of a surface, and (3) generate a profile of your surface.Part I: Importing Survey Data into AutoCAD1.
