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.

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.
