[mattlee1111]

Hi fellows:

I am a government officer in Taiwan.Recently I am brand new 2014 AIM.It's very helpful in my work.

I used google sketchup to import  google map terrain,Then I exported terrain files from sketchup.

But how to import google sketchup terrain into Infraworks as basic terrain?

Can Infraworks import google map as basic terrain directly?

many thanks by matthew

I am looking to do the same thing.  I can save a KMZ file from google earth and then if I extract a kml file from it I can import it into infraworks but I don't seem to get anything in the model.  Is there another way to bring information into infraworks directly from google earth pro?
