View Full Version : Curve Data in Traverse Report

Hi everyone-
When generating a Traverse Report with the Survey Tools within Civil 3d 2010, the curve data is not shown. The report only shows the Beginning of Curve and End of Curve points. The Traverse Report only gives two options for Curve Data. The first is by Chord, and the second is by Radius. What the report does, is just traverse the curve by chord or by radius point. Is there a way for the Traverse Report to list the Curve data such as Delta, Radius, Length of Curve, etc? Similar to the Curve Data Table that Civil 3D can generate for Curves. If Civil 3D can generate this data, then there must be a way to incorporate it in a Traverse Report. Most Cogo programs can integrate Curve data within the Traverse Reports, so I'm wondering if Civil 3D can also do the same.

Thanks in advance.

Are you by any chance mixing up a Traverse Report with a Mapcheck Report...?

By the very nature of a Survey Traverse, there can't be curves... A Traverse is performed by sequentially occupying control points, turning angles and shooting distances between them as you go. No curves involved.

You are correct, I meant to say Mapcheck Report or Closure Report. Any Ideas?
Is the Mapcheck Report capable of listing Curves by Curve Data such as Radius and Curve Length?
Thanks.

Yes, Mapcheck reports list curve data, as well as closure information.
