1. Import CAD data files.
  1. Verify the CAD file type is readable by SMS before importing it. SMS can import DXF and DWG files.
  2. Use the File | Open... command to launch the Open dialog (or drag and drop) to import the CAD files.
The data should load in layers into the Project Explorer.
2. Review and edit data.
  1. Check data to see that it shows up in the Project Explorer and any feature objects are in the Graphics Window.
3. Convert CAD data.
1. Convert CAD to Map coverage.
  1. Right-click on the CAD dataset in the Project Explorer and select Convert | CAD → Map.
  2. Use the options in the Clean Options dialog.
  3. A new map coverage with converted CAD data will appear in the map module.
2. Convert CAD faces to 2D scatter triangles.
  1. Right-click on the CAD dataset in the Project Explorer and select Convert | CAD Faces → 2D Scatter Triangles.
3. Convert CAD points to 2D scatter.
  1. Right-click on the CAD dataset in the Project Explorer and select Convert | CAD Points → 2D Scatter.
  2. Name the scatter set in the New Scatter Set dialog.
  3. A new scatter set with converted CAD data will appear in the scatter module.
4. Export to CAD Data.
Project data can be converted to CAD data.
  1. Right-click on an empty space in the Project Explorer and select Convert to CAD.
  2. Save the CAD data file.
  3. CAD data will be loaded into the Project Explorer.

Creating Interpolating from Multiple Elevation Sources workflow

1. Import Raster images.
Raster data is imported into the GIS module in SMS.
  1. Use the Open command to import raster data files such as DEMs, KMZ files, and gridded elevation formats.
  2. Files can also be imported with the "drag and drop" option.
2. Blend Raster Resolution.
Interpolating data from multiple elevation sources first requires blending the rasters involved. To do so, follow these steps:
  1. From the Toolbox, select Blend Raster to Edges.
  2. Set the Primary raster and the Secondary raster options with the rasters that are to be blended.
  3. Specify the distance over which the active edges of the primary raster will be blended into the secondary raster.
  4. Specify the name of the Output raster. This will be a separate raster created from the primary and secondary raster.
  5. Run the Blend Raster to Edges tool.
  6. Examine the newly created raster.
3. Clip rasters.
Trimming rasters ensures that no part of the raster is above surveyed elevations. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Clip raster to high resolution.
  1. From the Toolbox, select Clip Raster from Elevations.
  2. Specify the Raster to clip and the Elevation raster. Specify if the tool should clip elevations above or below the elevation raster.
  3. Set the name of the Output raster.
  4. Run the Clip Raster from Elevations tool.
  5. Examine the newly created raster.
2. Clip raster to lower resolution.
  1. From the Toolbox, select Clip Raster from Elevations.
  2. Specify the Raster to clip and the Elevation raster. Specify if the tool should clip elevations above or below the elevation raster.
  3. Set the name of the Output raster.
  4. Run the Clip Raster from Elevations tool.
  5. Examine the newly created raster.
4. Interpolate raster elevation to mesh to create new elevation dataset.
The Interpolate Priority Rasters tool allows for multiple rasters to be used when interpolating onto a grid. To do so, follow these steps:
1. Use the Interpolate Priority Rasters tool to interpolate raster data onto the desired grid.
  1. From the Toolbox, select Interpolate Priority Rasters
  2. Select the grid to interpolate onto.
  3. Select the order of priority for the rasters that will be used for interpolation. The order determines which raster the program will look at first to interpolate data onto the grid.
  4. Run the Interpolate Priority Rasters tool.
2. Review the data on the mesh.
  1. Turn off all rasters.
  2. Turn on the desired grid.
  3. Adjust the Display Options Display Options Macro.svg.
5. Set the map elevation dataset to the newly created dataset.
1. Select the desired dataset.
  1. While in the Mesh module, use the Data|Map elevation... command.
  2. Select the newly created dataset.
  3. Adjust the display as desired to review the change in mapped dataset.
2. Set unassigned node values.
Depending on the rasters used, it's possible that some mesh nodes didn't get assigned elevation values. To assign them values, follow these steps:
  1. Convert the grid to 2D scatter points ??(If it's not already a collection of 2D scatter points).
  2. Select all desired scatter points. ??Include more information on how to do this?
  3. Delete the selected scatter points and use the Triangles|Triangulate command.
  4. Select all nodes with unassigned values in the grid.
  5. In the Graphics Window, use the Interpolate elevation right-click command.
  6. Set the Scatter Set To Interpolate From to the scatter set where the unassigned scatter points have just been removed and interpolate it to this scatter set.
