Basically, what I would like to do, Is create a Alignment that has Three Dimensional properties (Differing Elevations) For each coordinate and export it to a file that can be uploaded into a survey Trimble Controller. An Rxl file would be great.
We do this all the time by creating an alignment then creating a design profile for that alignment. You can use trimble link to upload the profile and alignment to your collector.
Okay. Usually I create an alignment from an object, an existing polyline. But I do not know how to create an alignment based off of an 3D polyline, and I don't really need a design profile. I have Trimble Link on my computer.
You could draw an alignment over the top of your 3d polyline then create a profile view for that alignment. Then i would turn the 3d polyline into a feature line and project it to the profile view and draw a design profile over the top of that projected line. Then export both to the collector. Don't know if that is the only way but that is how I would handle it, quick fast and done.
thanks

Actually what I think I really need to do is to create a Road File based on the 3DPolyline. According to the Surveyors.
Your best bet and the fastest is to do the alignment and profile, then upload the alignment and profile to the collector.
