Steer Indication
3DMC can be used to steer the machine to and pave to a polyline
layer in the Linework file. Typically, you use an Alignment file to
pave along an alignment line. The polylines represent features or
objects such as building pads, curbs, sidewalks, top and toe of slopes,
or any boundary on the project. If the polyline is composed of three
dimensional information at each transition point, it can be selected on
the main screen and used as the alignment line to steer to, or can be
used as the design elevation to control the screed.
