Automate Staking Plans with Dynamo
Automate Staking Plans with Dynamo
5/12/2020
Stephen Walz aptly details and compares two Stakeout Plan workflows - A classic and tedious Civil 3D manual workflow and a Dynamo for Civil 3D script workflow to speed up the production process.
From the Stephen Walz YouTube Channel
Comments
As usual, Stephan delivers an interesting approach and solution to a classic and tedious Civil 3D problem with some nice clear Dynamo script goodies.
Stephan's systematic buildup of the complexity of the Dynamo script is worth our attention.
Some of us might like to assign Point Numbers by his Description Point Groups via some managed numbering plan. This is possible.
Adding the Point Numbering Code Blocks to the final scripts should not be a big deal if you employ an Excel or CSV file to lookup that for each list.
You could also employ a simple traverse like Alignment to Group the point locations by Setup location and maximum distance metrics if you were so inclined.
That might be useful if you employ Corridors and Features lines to design and document the design.
Object based Reference Docs in Civil 3D
Object based Reference Docs in Civil 3D

Autodesk's Jeff Bartels reviews the Civil 3D tool to link file reference documents to AutoCAD objects and Civil 3D Features.
See the Jeff Bartels YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
This tool first introduced in Civil 3D 2018 can be very handy in project publish drawings when needed.
We must carefully place such file references in well thought out locations in our project file structure or face the negative consequences downstream.
Embedded hyperlinks to cloud-based public or private folders (which may hold multiple documents) may be easier to manage in many instances.
You might want to check how well the current Autodesk Connector for BIM 360 Docs identifies and handles these file references and content.
