The topics in this section describe how to use land development data with 3ds Max. Land data typically comes from civil engineering projects, and can use a few different file formats.
LandXML/DEM Model Import Dialog
In the LandXML/DEM Model Generator, you determine which parts of your land development data are imported to 3ds Max. 3ds Max then creates separate objects for each of the land features, including terrain surfaces, road alignments, and parcels.
