Our work is also on ground. Its starts from Grid then we establish the project scale factor. Upload a .jxl template file into sync manager for each ...

Start a master spreadsheet where each project has it's own tab with all the pertinent information. I implemented this a decade ago and can't live wit...

99% of our work is on a state plane system and we go back and forth with GPS and conventional daily without any calibrations perfectly fine.

We had a similar nightmare a few years ago...which only further reaffirmed my desire to avoid calibrations at all costs. I don't recall the fix but g...

The ALTA standards don't control State mandated requirements. I can conduct a survey to any standards the client requests but there is no such thing ...

Explains why i have been using Civil3d from the beginning and never heard or seen this command. It's not a survey function, its for Autocad Map. Don'...

I am with @robertusa on this one and have been using cad and civil3d longer than i can remember. Back in the day, points where input via cogo only me...

100% agreed. That is the one benefit of the way idaho handles not city/state roads, with Highway Districts. Each Highway district has an attorney an...

@party-chef The Trimble as-staked report should do the trick. It's not perfect, we took it and modified it to meet our needs but it should give you e...

That's the most common occurrence in my work area. We create legals and exhibits, it's up to Attorney to prepare the deeds and language.

@williwaw all survey points should be in their final location prior to importing to any files through the survey database. We do all our adjustments ...

Yes and in Idaho its the law to set it, calculated PLSS corners are not allowed on surveys/plats. WA allows it, not sure outside of those two.

All surveys in my states must be completed on ground, not grid. In Idaho, you cannot show calculated corners at all. All mons must be visited and ti...

Long time Civi3d user here and unless you have someone that knows the ropes and all the proper setups i would not use alpha numeric. Just use point n...

Coordinates are near the very bottom of the hierarchy of data. Unless required by an agency, they will never be on my recorded documents. WA makes i...
