Setting Out Data

Note: These tutorials are made for exporting stakeout stringlines to LandXML using Novapoint 21 / Novapoint 2020 or newer. For help regarding the export of Setting Out Data from Novapoint 20 and earlier, click this link.

Setting Out Data to LandXML for result data created by Novapoint Road or Novapoint Railway is done through exports in Quadri for Windows (QfW). Below is a list of machining equipment (3rd party software) and the corresponding method that should be used when exporting. Note that this is not a complete list.

Table 1: List of machining equipment (3rd party software) and the corresponding method that should be used when exporting

Note: When exporting to different 3rd party solutions you should check with the receiving party what type of LandXML they require, as LandXML is comprised of many different dialects. The receiving software may require specific formats to be able to read the data.

Short explanation of the LandXML results from the different methods above:

Method 1: StakeOutLines as IrregularLines
Method 2: StakeOutLines as IrregularLines with the alignment as a 3D point list
Method 3: StakeOutLines as BreakLines
