Autodesk® Subscription
customers were given access to a new point clouds feature for the AutoCAD
Civil 3D 2010 release. The display of the point cloud is an important part of
this new feature, and AutoCAD Civil 3D 2011 offers the added benefit of the
ability to generate a Civil 3D surface from the point cloud. The Add Points To Surface command enables you to extract
points from a point cloud to add to a new or existing surface. You can use
the entire point cloud or a selection of points. |

This enables you to
better visualize and understand the project from the confines of your office;
in addition, it enables the direct use of the information as a standard
surface for use in further development of the design. |
