Civil 3D for Surveyors

As a surveyor, managing and editing survey points and surfaces is the primary part of your computer design tasks. Take a deeper look into how Civil 3D enables you to take a point database and turn it into accurate surfaces, with custom point labels. Civil 3D has enhanced tools that allow you to automatically produce surfaces, figures, and features based on the point coding you already do. Validate surfaces, and perform least square analysis, ensuring that your survey is the highest quality.

This course is designed for people who are beginners to the software. If you’ve never used Civil 3D – or aren’t sure how surfaces or alignments work – this course may be right for you. The class explains each object type, and how they interact with each other to create a full 3D surface.
