Support importing .laz files into a terrain

Please add the support to import an .laz file directly to a terrain. If it ORD can read an laz into a point cloud it seems like a pointless extra step where I have to convert an laz into a pod or las before I can import it into a terrain.

Ability to extend profile runs

I would like the ability to control the limits of the profile run in profile sheets which would also allow me to control the stationing without having to create a separate alignment and project the drainage run into the separate alignment.

Add Survey Feature Definitions to Horizontal Feature Constraint Target List

Add the ability to target survey Feature Definitions with Horizontal Feature Constraints on Points within Templates. There is a deliverable required on surveyors to show cross sections of their surveyed surface where sections within the surface ha...

Enhancing Named Boundaries: Updating Named Boundaries and Applying Geometry Rules

To enhance productivity and efficiency in live projects, we need dynamic Named Boundaries linked to Geometry. This includes the ability to update the shape or location of a named boundary after creating a sheet model, with the changes reflected in...

Allow profile element selection in Project Profile to Element tool

I use Project Profile to Element when grading intersections, but often times the roadway centerline has multiple profile elements (similar to how InRoads had multiple vertical alignments). I could go to the alignment file, set active the one I wan...

Add more Display Options for Placing Terrain Slope Labels at a Single Point on a Terrain

Currently, the only way to place a single point slope label on a terrain is using the "Analyze Point" tool which works ok, but there are no options at all for controlling the display of the label placed. We would like to have the ability to place ...

Ability to define the slope of any points within the dynamic section using the measure tools

Having the ability to quickly check both existing and design crossfall/superelevation would increase efficiency within the program as there would be no requirement to run a template and report to evaluate existing cross slopes

Ability to export and import all corridor objects such as point controls to enable rebuilding of corridors

I know parametric constraints can be exported but if a corridor becomes corrupt then being able to rebuild it from scratch easily would be useful. Similar to an input file in MX

Rectangle feature

Openroads Horizontal Geometry has lines, arcs, and circle features. Add a rectangular civil geometry element. This would be used for site grading (building pad), instead of drawing 4 individual civil geometry lines and complexing together, a recta...
