Report Lat/Long/Elevation for a POI with a simple script

You can use this handy script (provided in this InfraTip) to report latitude, longitude, and elevation for Points of Interest (POIs) in your model to the User Data field.

Nice!

Is it possible to modify the script so that the coordinates is shown in the same coordinate system as set in the model properties, i.eg. ETRS89.UTM-32N?

Thanks! I am checking on this. My guess is yes, but it will take a little thought. I'll get back to you soon!

Best,

Elliott

I believe this will do the trick, although I haven't had a chance to test it out yet. I will report back shortly.

//convertion from LL84 to UTM-32N

var transforms = new adsk.SRSTransform("EPSG:4326", " ETRS89.UTM-32N");

Thanks!

Thanks!

Is this string supposed to be implemented in the original script or run separately? I can't seem to get it to work from my end...

How about also including a script for exporting POI properties out to a text file? 🙂

Hmm, I am also encountering some difficulties getting the transform to work. I'll continue tinkering with this and report back when I have a solution. As for exporting the POI properties out to a text file, you could consider using the Data Table to produce a report. To do so, right-click on the feature class in Model Explorer and choose "View in Data Table." Locate the POI, right-click on it, and choose CSV export selected.

Thanks! The csv-export is what I was looking for. 🙂

Hi @elliott.rosenfeld, did you manage to reproject from DBCs to UserCs yet?

I'm trying to change the script but can't get it to work.

Greetings, if I wanted to move an object or point of interest at a specific location at a given coordinate bone XYZ, that option could perform that action ?? I should build on some sequence of script as mentioned in this post ?? or forming might, in advance thousand thanks and a thousand apologize for the question ...

Saludos, si yo quisiera mover un objeto o punto de interes a un lugar especifico, osea a una coordenada dada XYZ, con que opción podría realizar dicha acción?? tendría que basarme en alguna secuencia de script como la que se menciona en este post?? o de que forma podría hacerlo, de antemano mil gracias y mil disculpe por la pregunta...

FYI, I got the SPC by simply changing the coordinate system of the model to the SPC, and then run the script. Of course, make sure you change it back to the system it was using before.
