Workflow: To Obtain and Create Survey Data

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.
