The Coordinate File Format is an ASCII file containing XYZ information for the designed subgrade and road surfacing layers. It can be used for exporting coordinate information to a total station for staking (blue-topping).
This format is created by choosing menu File - Save As and selecting Coordinate (*.TXT) in the Save file as type combo box.
Every point on the subgrade and road surfaces is saved as a line in the file in the following format:
PStation, LStation Flag, X, Y, Z, Code, H Offset, V Offset
-SG for subgrade
-SRF1 for 1st surface above subgrade
-SRF2 for 2nd surface above subgrade
-SRF3 for 3rd surface above subgrade
default subgrade points
-SKL(R) slope stake
-DIL(R) ditch inside
-DOL(R) ditch outside
-REL(R) road edge
-CL centerline point
road surface points
-ST1L(R) bottom of surface (left side)
-SB1L(R) top of surface(left side)
Horizontal offset from centerline (l-line)
Vertical offset from centerline (l-line)
