I have been wondering about this for a while. What is everyone's process when figuring out a boundary and rationalizing it in Civil3D? I am only a survey tech, but I am very much ingrained in the office side of things when it comes to what the PLS's are doing at our office and I know how they do it.
Typically what happens is they plot the deeds/plans (we are in a metes and bounds state if that changes anything) then they import the points into Civil 3D and move the linework from the deed/plan plotting to the points. Then from there they best fit the linework to the monuments found and determine the boundary that way.
They are adamant about never changing the deed or plan calls unless you have SOLID evidence that it is wrong. So if a found monument is off from what they determine the boundary to be from other monuments, they will show it as such.
Then I usually take that finalized boundary placement and use that to draft the plan, and they use that to stake the corners not found.
Is this standard everywhere or just my company? Just trying to not fall into one way of doing things if there is a better way for when I get my license.
