Volume calcs and Cross Sections

Hi,

 

I have been supplied topographical survey data in 3D dxf format.

 

Is it any way possible within the standard CAD packages to produce cross sections from an alignment; long sections along a line and / or volume calculations from this data. Or do I need Civil CAD as a minimum?

 

Survey processing software will obviously do this task as a matter of course but it seems a little OTT to have to purchase the package with all of it's capabilities, just for this one / two requirements.

 

Are there any LISP routines that will do it?

 

Thanks.

 

R

Hi Roger,

 

It would be better to post this question in the customization forum where you could find some help with Lisps.

Cheers,

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I moved this thread to the AutoCAD Civil 3D forum as I believe that all the tasks you are trying to accomplish appear to be Civil related. There are third-party packages that might do this as well. I suggest that you add an additional post in the customization forum too as @Vinayv4v suggested.
