About Inquiry Types

You can run inquiries on points, surfaces, alignments, profiles, profile views, sections, section views, and corridor sections.

Inquiry Type	Inquiry Input	Inquiry Results
Point Inverse	Two points	Direction Horizontal Distance Grid Direction Grid Distance Geodetic Direction (Forward) Geodetic Direction (Reverse) Geodetic Distance
Surface Level and Gradient At Point	Surface Point on surface	Surface level at point Gradient (percentage) Slope Gradient (degree) Slope direction
Surface Level and Gradient Between Points	Surface Two points on surface	Surface level at each point Level difference between points Distance between points Gradient (percentage) Slope Gradient (degree) Slope direction
Alignment Chainage and Offset at Point	Alignment Offset point	Chainage at point Offset at point
Alignment Chainage, Offset, and Profile Level at Point	Alignment Profile Horizontal offset point	Chainage at point Offset at point Profile level at alignment chainage Note: This command lists the level not at the offset point, but on the alignment. Use the following query to list the level at the selected offset point.
Alignment Chainage, Offset, and Surface Level at Point	Alignment Surface Horizontal offset point	Chainage at point Offset at point Surface level at point
Alignment Two Chainages and Offsets at Point	Two alignments Offset point	Chainages and offsets (in relation to both alignments)
Profile View Chainage and Level at Point	Profile View Point on profile view	Chainage at point Level at point
Profile View Level and Gradient Between Points	Profile View Two points on profile view	Level difference between points Distance between points Gradient (percentage) Slope Gradient (degree)
Profile Chainage and Level at Point	Profile Point on profile	Chainage at point Level at point
Profile Level Difference at Chainage	Profile view Two profiles Point on profile view	Chainage at point Level difference between profiles at point
Section View Offset and Level at Point	Section view Point on section view	Chainage at point Horizontal offset at point Level at point
Section View Level and Gradient Between Points	Section view Two points on section view	Chainage of selected section view Level difference between points Distance between points Gradient (percentage) Slope Gradient (degree)
Section Offset and Level at Point	Section Point on section	Offset at selected point Level of section at offset point
Section Difference at Offset	Section View Two sections Offset point	Offset at selected point Level difference between the sections at offset point
Tip: To select a section, zoom into a section view and click the section object inside the view. If you sampled multiple surfaces and you have trouble selecting the correct section surface, edit the section view properties (Sections Tab (Section View Properties Dialog Box)_ref) and turn off the display of the sections you do not want to select.
Corridor Section Offset and Level at Point	Prerequisite: Run View/Edit Corridor Sections Command and select chainage Offset/Level point	Offset at selected point Level at selected point
Corridor Section Level and Gradient Between Points	Prerequisite: Run View/Edit Corridor Sections Command and select chainage Two Offset/Level points	Level difference between points Distance between points Gradient (percentage) Slope Gradient (degree)
Corridor Section Level Difference at Offset	Prerequisite: Run View/Edit Corridor Sections Command and select chainage Two corridor surfaces Offset/Level point	Offset at selected point Level difference between corridor surfaces at selected point
