Purposes

To create a file to list all Horizontal and Vertical Alignment geometry from a Master String.

In addition to writing the report file this function can also be used to mark horizontal and vertical tangent points, high and low points as well as regular intervals. This provides a good way to show vertical data points on the Horizontal Alignment.

 

Operation

Pick the Horizontal Alignment 2D Polyline and if vertical information is required select the .vtg file.

or

Pick a 3D Polyline and specify where the vertical geometry (if required) will be derived from.

 

Enter the name of the output .kdr report file. If all outputs are requested as shown in the dialogue then a full listing of all horizontal and vertical geometry will be written to the file.

 

The horizontal and vertical analysis file looks like this :-
