Site Topography

Site topography is something that I was completely unfamiliar with previous to this project. I spent a great deal of time playing around with this to figure out if it was compatible with PDF or AutoCAD files. You can, in fact, import an AutoCAD drawing to your model and assign the points of topography to the AutoCAD points. I couldn't find an easy was to do this without pulling the whole site in one direction or another, so I settled for the areas of primary importance, using an AutoCAD file as a reference. This process took three hours to complete. As you can see, I've also added in the cross section of streets, as well as the parking lots and exterior paving.
