Survey data can be brought into AutoCAD Civil 3D using several methods including importing from field books and LandXML files as well as entering data manually.
| Transfer and convert raw file to .fbk files | Use the Survey Data Collection Link to download raw data and convert it to a field book file. | |
| Import survey data | Use the Survey Data wizard, import field book files, import survey LandXML data directly into the survey database, import a point file, or import points from a drawing. | |
| Review/update import events | The import event provides a framework that you can use to view and edit specific survey data that is referenced within the import event. | |
| Add/edit survey data | Use AutoCAD Civil 3D to define and manage survey data such as point, setups, directions, traverses, and figures. | |
| Create/edit survey figures | Use the Survey Figure commands to create and edit survey figures, as well as to perform figure inquiries. |
