This article explains how to import a reference terrain model into a project in SDX-Cloud. A reference terrain can serve as the baseline for analyzing cut/fill differences and validating construction progress. In SDX-Cloud, you can upload a DXF or LandXML file into a project, allowing automatic comparisons with ongoing system scans.
Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following ready:
- project in SDX-Cloud
- Reference terrain file (DXF or LandXML)
- File must use the same coordinate system as your project scans
