Convert reference data into a roading file step-by-step
Road alignments in DXF format cannot be used by the Roading application or
by Leica machine control software platforms.
The Create Road tool allows you to convert existing reference data into a
roading model.
The created road file can be exported to a USB stick or to Leica ConX for
transferring to other field controllers or to Leica machine control systems.
(Refer to 2.2 Import, Export, or Delete Data.)
➜ Given: Reference model is active within the current job.
- Open the Roading app. Map screen is displayed.
- Select Create Road from the toolbox.
- Follow the Wizard steps.
Select a line to be used as the main road line. In the toolbar optionally:
• Enter an ID/name and a chainage.
• Define the direction of the road line.
Tap the next Wizard step
to proceed. - Select a reference file to convert the lines into road stringlines. If no reference file is selected, the software creates a road line in *.xml format. If a reference file is selected, the software creates a road model in *.xml format. Tap the next Wizard step
to proceed. - Select individual lines for the road creation. Optionally, enter an ID/name for each line.
To ensure that all selected lines have the same start-end point direction, tap
. - Select a surface to perform a vertical transformation. Vertical transformation is optional; it allows shifting the model to an existing surface when the reference file has zero or no height information. If vertical transformation is not required, proceed without selecting a surface. Tap
to proceed. - If necessary, change the file name. Tap
to convert and save the roading file.
