Survey Tutorials
These tutorials will get you started working with the AutoCAD Civil 3D survey features.
AutoCAD Civil 3D contains a complete set of tools that surveyors can use to download and
process survey information, perform adjustments on network and traverse data, and import
survey points into a AutoCAD Civil 3D drawing.
An easy-to-use wizard enables you to import survey data from various data sources, including
points in the current drawing, and field book, LandXML, and point files. When the field crew
codes survey points using a predetermined format, a linework code set can be used to process
the linework quickly either during or after import.
The survey features also provide options for detailing points with figures and line work. Other
options provide the capability of calculating directions based on astronomic observations.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Understanding Survey.

Tutorial: Survey Setup
This tutorial demonstrates how to access the survey functionality and define
and manage the survey settings in AutoCAD Civil 3D.
In the following exercises, you will specify survey project settings by setting up
a survey database, equipment definition, figure prefix database, individual user
settings, survey styles, and linework code set.
For more information, see the AutoCAD Civil 3D Help topic Survey Databases.
