Export elevations to DWG

[SerG]

Hi all, i'm German

I'm a new one from México here

I'm testing the new feature of obtaining elevations from Google Earth on IrriCAD V14, then export a drawing to DWG, but he contours lines don't conserve the elevation data.

Is that possible?, how?

Hi German,

Currently IRRICAD exports only 2D not 3D dxf/dwg files so the contours will not retain the elevation data in the exported file.
Because AutoCAD and DraftSight only import a narrow range of file types it is not currently possible to send elevation data from IRRICAD to AutoCAD.
This year we are developing an AutoCAD-like based IRRICAD which may help with exporting 3D information.

Reards,

Thanks Jo

We're gonna be expecting for that, at least whit this obtaining the polygons from Google Earth it's easier.

Hello.
I am using Irricad 16 and I don´t know if it is possible to export 3D contour data to DXF/DWG?

Thank you.

Hi, The only way IRRICAD Standalone (Pro) can currently export elevation data is via KML/KMZ format. However IRRICAD Link, our plug-in version for AutoCAD and BricsCAD, saves the 3D data natively to DWG file. IRRICAD Link can also import KML/KMZ files if required.
