Invert Terrain Elevation

ASCII elevation data from hydrosurveys is delivered in positive depths making for an embankment instead of a channel. A function to multiply elevations by -1 would save a trip through Excel or a GIS program.

ORD Drainage - Show actual Tc versus Tc Minimum

Many times a calculated Time of Concentration is less than the minimum used for Intensity. When this occurs in a system of drainage areas (catchments), it helps a designer AND a reviewer to see what the actual Time of Concentration is at a given p...

Fix the rotation issue when importing drainage nodes from inroads.

We recently used ORD to import 200 plus drainage structures from inroads to ORD. It brought in the nodes, but the rotation was off. We had to manually rotate the node to the correct angle. Also, the 2-D and 3-D rotation did not match until the nod...

Circular Eccentric MH Feature Definitions Rotation Reference Point Addition

The insertion point for circular eccentric manhole feature definitions is at the center of the MH 2D top. When it's rotated, it rotates at that point instead of the center of the 3D base. Please create the ability to use the insertion point to set...

Explorer - Edit Multiple Features or Symbologies

In Explorer under OpenRoads Standards, we can select and see the properties/details of multiple feature definitions and symbologies. It would be extremely helpful to be able to edit the properties for multiple options when they are all selected. S...

Calculating Multiple Polygon Volumes using Analyze Volume from Terrain Model

The calculate volume tool only works on a single target polygon. If multiple polygons are present it's quite tedious to calculate one-by-one and manually sum the totals. For example in a bathy survey of a channel it's common to have different area...

Forcing Tangency in Geometry Builder by element

The Geometry Builder allows us to force tangent restrictions. In some cases there might be some lines/arcs that are tangent and some that are not. It would be an improvement to have the ability to force tangent where needed instead of on all eleme...

Add ability to create an Event Point list in the OpenRoads Designer SDK.

I would like to programmatically create a new EventPoint list for an alignment. Looking through the Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.Tools.Helpers methods, I found GetEventPointList(Alignment) that returns a List<Bentley.CifNET.GeometryModel.KeySta...

Add option to modify a curve to have spirals on a complex alignment

Instead of having to look at the OpenRoads Model tab in the explorer and selecting the fillet to add transition ahead and back for spirals, could a plus sign or other visual on the complex alignment be added that you could click to just put in the...
