The Create Points/Arcs feature allows you to create and edit design geometry directly in the field. Using existing measured data, stakeout points, lines, arcs, and design objects, you can generate new points, arcs, circles, offsets, and linework without returning to the office.
To access the feature:
- Open the COGO menu.
- Tap Create Points/Arcs.
A toolbar on the left side of the screen provides access to the available creation and editing tools. These tools can also be accessed through the Help icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.
| Icon | Description |
|---|---|
| Create a radius point for an arc. | |
| Create offset points from a line. | |
| Create an offset point at a certain station. | |
| Create a mid-point of a line or arc. | |
| Subdivide a line or arc in segments. | |
| Create a point at a distance and bearing. | |
| Enter the coordinates of a stakeout or measured point. | |
| Create points at the end of a line or arc. | |
| Free Point Pick. | |
| Toggle display bar. | |
| Create a point at the intersection of a line. | |
| Deflection from line. | |
| Delete points and lines. | |
| Create an arc from three points or two points and radius. | |
| Create a circle by selecting a center point and either clicking or entering a radius or diameter. | |
| Create a new line from two points. | |
| Select points from a list. | |
| Define 2D object elevation. | |
| Create an offset line by tapping on an existing line. | |
Access the Help. The Help icons are active, and the associated task and workflow can be accessed by tapping on the icon. |
Points can be stored as stakeout points or as measured points. A surface can be generated from measured points, which you can then export to the GCS900, AccuGrade, or Earthworks grade control systems for machine guidance through the Home / Import/Export / Export to Machine command.
