Seems nobody is concerned that surfaces generated by a Civil3D workflow come from what appears to be unadjusted (I.e. open, non-redundant) observation...

I think I would retire a machete next to monument that didn't have any metal in it. That will continue to be a nice find for many surveyors in the fut...

I watched a couple of Civil3D training videos showing how you can query each point that shows the raw angles and distances (maybe vectors) that genera...
