Jeff Bartels of Autodesk explains how to import Infraworks surface model into Civil 3D.

Yes. A surface model import from Infraworks into Civil 3D (in the 2019 release) really is this easy!
First - Jeff's note from the previous post about the quality of the surface is important:
NOTE: Point clouds created from imagery will produce surface elevations matching a site’s vegetation: grass, brush, crops, etc. (Basically, the surface represents what the camera “sees”.) Point clouds created from Lidar however, will provide the most accurate bare earth extraction as the laser used to collect the data is capable of penetrating vegetation.
- See the earlier Survey Drone to Civil 3D Workflow video series for the entire process with Civil 3D Imports
- See the earlier Import ReCap Aerial Images into Infraworks video.
- See the previous mentioned Import ReCap Point Clouds into Infraworks video.

Autodesk's Alan Gilbert explains a workflow to download some published survey monument data in SHP format and then connect to this data with Map 3D inside Civil 3D.
Videos from Alan's YouTube Channel.
and the Civil Immersion blog.
Comments
Alan's tip about how use the Map query to limit the quality monuments displayed from the SHP in Map 3D may be mission critical and useful to you.
Alan's title of the post and video implies this workflow by itself gets you the downloaded monument data into your Civil 3D project.
Ok. I trust the final steps to create the data from the Map 3D SHP resources are at this point obvious.
