To Create Points at an Incremental Distance

Interpolates points that are a specified distance apart.

Define the interpolation region by specifying the start and end control points, or click near the start point of an object.

  1. Select settings and create styles, layers, point groups, and description keys.
  2. Home tab Create Ground Data panel Points menu Create Points - Interpolate Incremental Distance .
  3. Specify the interpolation region by doing one of the following:
    • Pick a point in the drawing and enter a level for the first point. Specify the second point and then either enter D to specify the difference in level between the two points, or enter S to specify the slope from the first point to the second point.
    • Use Transparent commands to specify the point.
    • Enter E, and select an arc, line, feature line, plot line, or polyline. Specify the distance between points, and then specify the offset distance by either entering the distance, picking a point, or using Transparent commands.
  4. Enter a description, or press Enter to skip the description.
