Create Civil Points from Surface

[kailiwalker]

Is it possible to create civil points at surface elevation through lisp?

Yes. Is this for Civil 3D or Land Desktop?

Also, it would help if you posted what code you have so far.

If you are looking for someone to write a solution for you from scratch, please say so. This will filter out the people responding to those who may have time to do this for you.

I don't have any code yet, just trying to get ideas. Right now im trying to get this to work for LDD 2004. Thanks

Although lisp is capable, you may find it easier to put this together using VBA.

The API exposes all you need. You can get the elevation of any point in a surface, then use the point API to create a point at the X and Y that you want, then plug in the Z gathered from the above step.
