Create multiple field books w/o terrain connecting

The ability to create multiple field books without the terrain connecting to each. This would be necessary when surveying multiple sites for one given road project. Currently, this is done by importing the data and then going to the survey setti...

elevation analysis in profile view

Elevation analysis needs improved within the profile window. Specifically elevation differences. Either at a single station or point, or minimum distances, etc. In the attached screen shot, I would like to know where my minimum distance occurs bet...

Add extra Coloum which shows Delta Value in Geometry Report at PC, PT, No Curve PI, SC and CS

Alerts users to the existence of "kinks" in horizontal alignments. These "kinks" are where the back and ahead tangents at PCs and PTs of curves are not on the same bearing. There is a small tolerance built in to eliminate rounding errors.

Profile: Edit (move, rotate and scale) annotations in profile model

Currently in OpenRail, one cannot edit profile annotations. In profile, one can only select an annotation group, but after all the annotations are placed, they are fixed and cannot be moved, scaled or rotated. In contrast, this is possible when on...

Improve civil geometry constraints

Provide an option to quickly apply combined horizontal and vertical constraints to geometry elements. Where geometry lines (breaklines) intersect, they need to share a common elevation. The current process requires creating profile intersection po...

Place Civil Cell on Referenced Survey Feature

I would like the ability to place a civil cell along a survey feature that is referenced. We use a simple civil cell and cross sections to help compute existing pavement cross slopes.

Add option to use only centerline radius for superelevation calculations

Provide an option or new method to use the centerline radius (instead of inside lane radius) for divided highways that use a Crown pivot method. The Divided Inside pivot method already does this for divided highways that pivot about the inside lan...

Import and Export ITL templates from and to Microstation

In InRoads there was the ability to import templates from Microstation. This enabled complex shapes that were drawn in CAD to be used in templates.

Add Application Version number in Pref Folder

Please add the correct version number to applications user preference folder. Currently when you browse to Openroads user preference folder you get folders called 10.0.0 and 10.0.0_1. These folders need to contain the version number of Openroads s...

Simplify Civil Cell tool

Civil cells contain horizontal and vertical geometry. In practice, typically the vertical design is unique for each placement instance of design features that could utilize civil cells, even though the horizontal geometry is similar or varies para...
